The space was great!! There was no central heating but all of the plug-in space heaters really make up for it (The weather ranged from 20-50 F while we were visiting). The ferry is very close and although theres no subway running within a mile of the place, the bus stop is very close. Tom left great recommendations for places nearby and was very responsive to any problems we had. Check-in and check-out were very easy, all the instructions are left for you. We had a great week in New York- thanks so much Tom!!
