Paula's place is easy to find, very safe and close to a subway. Paula keeps her unit so clean and respond very very quickly. She also suggested some good places to go to, which is very helpful if it is your first time in NY. There is a good amount of cooking ware if you plan to cook. The unit is close to a fairly busy street so there is occasional vehicle noises but it is quiet during the night. I was never awakened by any loud noises from outside during my visit. The street infront of the unit was mostly clear with no loitering. I will stay here over and over again.
