The room is located in a nice neighborhood. North of the bridge there are quite a few boutiques and restaurants. Also, the subway station is pretty close which brings you everywhere in NY. Russel is fast in communication. We could leave our luggage on the check-out day which was really convenient. We were able to use the kitchen as well. The room as well as bathroom could have been cleaner. Also the bed is a bit noisy. All together we enjoyed our stay.
