Alexa’s apartment is in a great location. Easy to get to great dining places, theaters, time square, and more. You do have to go up 2 flights of stairs to get to the apartment. The stairwell and entrance are well lit. My family always felt safe coming and going from the apartment. My girls shared the bedroom away from the street. You can hear the street noise pretty clearly from the other bedroom, but Alexa provides a noise machine and ear plugs. Alexa made our first Airbnb experience great. She was quick to answer all of my many questions. She made us feel comfortable with our decision.
