Amazing place - huge windows with sunlight streaming through, gorgeous floors and brick wall. It is also really spacious for a NYC apartment - 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, large common area. There was easily enough seating for our entire family with a large table and two couches which comfortably seated all of us. This was important to us because we were ready to sit comfortably after a busy day of sightseeing and there was ample room to do this. The beds were comfortable and the air-conditioning was great. Others commented on the area but we did not feel unsafe at all - it's simply urban, on a busy road and it's NYC so there is construction going on down the road. Subway was a 5 minute walk and easily took us to our different destinations. Communication was great and we enjoyed our stay. Definitely recommend.
