Shell's place was the perfect accommodation for our NYC trip. ~5-10 minutes walk from a convenient subway line, ~10 minutes walk from a number of landmarks such as the Empire State Building, and close to a number of good restaurants. The flat, bathroom, and room were spacious and clean. Notably, the room was warm! It was 30-40F outside, but we were never cold in our room. Communication with Shell was also very simple and straightforward. 100% would recommend!
