The positive reviews of Kyle's place are the real deal. My husband and I just returned from 5 nights in NYC, and Kyle's apartment was the perfect jumping off point for everything we wanted to see in the city. Ideal location for theater - quick walk to Times Square without being right in the thick of the Times Square madness - easy walk to 30 Rock, etc. We also went down to Greenwich Village, the East Village, to the Upper West Side - combination of walking and easy access to subway trains from Hell's Kitchen. Nice touches in the room included a drawer of odds-and-ends you might need but wouldn't necessarily pack (i.e. we needed scissors to cut a tag out of a shirt), earplugs and a variety of pillows and blankets. Kyle and his fiancee are incredibly friendly and generous with their space. Bonus: downstairs 7 Brothers Deli was our go-to for a bottled water and a piece of fruit or something for our busy days (very friendly customer service, lots of sandwiches made to order), a Starbucks, a juice place and Amy's Breads (chocolate croissant - yum) were all super-nearby. Great neighborhood, great hosts.
