The location of Sals place is perfect. A few block and you have all the shops U need for food or shopping. The L train is right at the door and connects to any line U need. Apartment is a great size for the 2 of us. At first Sal was hard to get replies from but once we got there he was very helpful. I recommend staying here. It's very noisy due to sirens but that can't be helped in Manhattan.
