This apartment was in a very nice, quiet area with a wonderful staff of kind, attentive doormen in a nice building. Perfect for if you want to stay in the city but still have some peace and quiet. The closest train station is a 10-minute walk away (not bad at all) and there are plenty of bus stops close by. Elevator was also quick and laundry was relatively accessible by NYC standards - plenty of good machines always available, but the laundry card situation was a bit annoying at first. Some small things could be improved, like having a trash can that actually works in the kitchen, but they are easy fixes. Overall, a good stay, and the hosts were very responsive and helpful.
