This was clean, safe, quiet, and very convenient, so if these aspects are as important to you as they were to us, then you should definitely choose this place!
I was worried that our room would be loud because that's what I kept reading about for other NY rooms, but it's very quiet because it faces away from the street and they have a fan/heat/AC unit in there that you can turn on for white noise.
The subway line, the 6, is right across the street, so that was very convenient for hopping on the subway and getting to wherever.
We had our own bathroom, and it was very clean and updated.
The neighborhood is more residential, but it still has stuff like a grocery store right next door and several restaurants that you can easily walk to. You can also walk to Central Park.
Steve and James are both super nice and cool--people we'd want to be friends with in "real life."
Oh, and we saved a ton of money over staying in a big hotel somewhere! Thanks, guys!
