Very few places will beat the location of Sam’s place. I have kids and we love Central Park, so being close to it was just great.
The place is also a block away from the B and C trains. It’s really easy going anywhere. There are many coffee houses, convenience stores and restaurants close to the apartment. Everything within walking distance.
We were 4 and the place was just right. I have to say that we spent most of the time exploring the city. We didn’t cook but you could easily do it. The apartment is on a quiet street so no issues there.
Sam’s apartment offers great value for those visiting NYC. Highly recommend it.
