Alejandra's place was wonderful! Great location close to everything but not so close as to be loud. Despite being a shared residence, it felt very private and there was no feeling of being intrusive or like you had to worry about sharing the space. I was very nervous about that as we had never done a shared space before, but I would stay here again for sure!
To note, it is a walk up so there is a flight of stairs to get to the unit. also, we did find that some of the outlets were not working, so if you have charging bricks that let you charge multiple devices, that would probably be a good idea.
As far as the location, there is plenty to eat in Hell's Kitchen, it's about a 7 min walk to the subway and maybe 10 to Times Square. Everything was very convenient and we found this to be a perfect location for what we wanted to do. We did also come back to the unit late at night and never had any safety concerns. The street in front of the unit is well lit and things stay open late. I would definitely recommend staying here!
