We stayed here for a few days at New Year's Eve to see the Ball drop in Times Square. This apartment was located right near all the action we wanted and just steps away from the subway station to get us anywhere we wanted to go in Manhattan. We also booked tickets to a party in times square so we were guaranteed a spot to view the ball and being able to walk home afterwards without having to travel very far at all was so great! The apartment itself was clean and comfortable and had full kitchen so we could make our own food whenver we didn't feel like ordering something. I was so very happy it was only up one flight of stairs because I had previously stayed at an apartment that was up 5 flights of stairs and that was just not what you want to climb after a long day of touring the city on foot. However, the negative of being in such a great location and only one flight of stairs up is that we heard a lot of street noise during our stay. Next time I know to pack ear plugs and maybe even a small fan because there was heat, but if you wanted it to cool off you have to open the windows. New York was unseasonably warm during the time we stayed there.
