Dan’s place feels like home. He helped me w the check-in, and very responsive w the communication, even though I didn’t need to ask about anything cuz his guide was more than helpful.
The apartment was clean, cozy, fairly spacious compared to the typical Manhattan size. Free laundry at the 1st floor with the provided laundry card. Sensor key to access the building entrance & the apartment, feels pretty safe. Fully-equipped kitchen & lots of spices, oil, cooking additives, just need to buy the fresh ingredients & you can cook anything. The bed was comfy; the building’s central heater only works when the temperature is lower than 65, so at times it got cold if I’m not in bed (maybe also cuz I’m from a tropical country :)
I have video meetings at night time, so sometimes I wish the light is brighter, despite a lot of different lights in the apt. If you just need to chill and sleep then the lights are sufficient.
Re the location, I love it that the place is close to Restaurant Row of Hell’s Kitchen, soo many good restaurants nearby. I only stayed for a week, couldn’t go to all places that Dan recommended, but a few I went were delicious! Can also walk to Timesquare & the shows in about 15-20 mins. Subways are also 15-20m walk, which I wish closer so I don’t feel nervous walking home alone from the subway at night. I don’t go out late if just by myself, so didn’t have any issues & still felt the area was quite safe & quieter compared to the noisy theater district nearby.
