Great location. Zillions of cool places to eat and site-see within easy walking distance, e.g. MoMA, Central Park, Rockefeller Center, etc., etc., etc. All other places can be easily gotten by the subway. It is easy to figure out and the stations are everywhere.
Fang's place is very clean and comfortable but the big surprises were how dead quiet it was and the rooftop patio is the coolest thing. We had coffee and a pastry up there in the early morning sun almost every day. A cocktail up there at night is awesome too, looking out over the city.
Also, EVERYONE we met from NYC was super friendly and helpful when we just started a conversation or asked for directions, etc.
Thanks Fang..!!
