Apartment`s location is a very good base to start Manhattan tours in any direction - 5 min walk to Union Square and 10 min walk to 5th Av, subway "L" 3 min away. A lot of restaurants, Bistros and bars along 2nd Ave. View from buildings terrace is great. Inside the apartment you find all you need for daily life in high quality. Unfortunately we had to share the experience of previous guest that TV (not important during the stay (you are in NEW YORK - GO OUT!!!) - but offered in the description) as well as WIFI were not available. Thx STARBUCKS and Google not such a big issue ...! Anyway alltogether a fantastic week in Manhattan!
