I really liked my stay, had a great view from my room to the jersey side (tho not every room has that). I really liked the bed. The roofdeck pool was also nice, as were doorman, the washer/dryer and just having a little studio appartment for my stay. It is expensive, but I guess that's NYC for you. It's also not quiet, and the AC was very loud, but I slept with AC off. Also it's good to know that there is no cleaning inbetween. The area felt safe, I didn't see any big supermarkets too close, but 2 metro lines and WTC even in walking distance (10min).
