Our stay at Alex' was amazing! The apartment has anything that you can find in the description and on the photos. As some other users mentioned it's downstairs from their home so you can hear them walking around but we didn't mind. The subway station is reachable in less than 10 mins, from there you need 18 mins to Times square, so you are able to reach Manhattan in less than 30 mins. We felt really safe in the neighborhood and the apartment was nice. Alex was really nice and did answer really quickly. We would say at her place again when coming to New York!
