Two terms come to mind as I reflect on my stay in Lorena's pad - "As Advertised" which is EXACTLY what you will get - and the famous, and very fitting term: "location, location, LOCATION" !! So fitting !!

If you are looking for the glitz and glamor of midtown manhattan and Times Square - then go rent a hotel up that way! although we did head up that way one evening (roughly 1.5 miles "as a crow flies" - or a $25 uber ride) and you just feel at home when you get back there.
Something about her place, its that neighborhood and the people are just all awesome!! Truly.
Couple tips: really read the "check in instructions" and know what you are doing. Those streets are really really tight and busy - so trust me, you are not rollin up and unloading all your crap right there - its tough.
Lastly, if you find a legal street spot - especially on a wkend - take it - your good. I asked a doorman if I'd be good and he said yes, till Monday. I was good.
sum it all up: Do not hesitate.
