Great location for visiting the city. I loved the space and felt very safe and secure there. It was so nice to have a pretty comforter and I also liked the various books and NYC info organized on the bookshelf. I was grateful to have q-tips, nail polish remover, as well as a hair dryer and other toiletries. Less for me to pack or buy at Duane Reed! There was an electrical plug strip right next to the bed for easy access to my phone charger and Mac cord. The apartment was SO CLEAN too!
The only possible con would be if you are a light sleeper, as the window is right above the busy street. I sleep heavy so I didn't mind the noise at all.
It was a 10 block walk from the airport shuttle service which dropped me off at Grand Central Station. The subway station for the 6 train was only 3 blocks away and there were plenty of great food options within one block. Duane Reed was about 5 blocks away. It was a perfect location for my trip.
Shelby was good with communication and making sure I had the info I needed. I will stay with her again when visiting family in NYC.
