We had a great time at Mike's place. The bed was extremely comfortable, and the apartment is in a safe area. Mike was there to greet us and had fresh towels, snacks, and water available for us. He was very flexible and kind, I would stay at this place again. It is about 45 minutes to 1 hour via subway from Times Square. We usually left by 7 am and were able to take advantage of our time there. It was not too difficult to get to and from Mike's place.
