Location was good for us as our wedding event was across the street in the Park. Cons - apartment is very small, no toaster or microwave or radio available. Wi-Fi is very poor and maybe a booster would help with the signal. Roaches were a bit of a surprise but manageable. Noisy environment with the traffic and subway and aircrafts - perhaps this is the norm for New York. Pros - friendly neighbourhood, restaurants and grocery stores and metro all nearby.
