Our stay was not what we had expected. Once we got there, the shower did not work and the bath tub itself is severely stained. Being that the shower did not work, we did receive a partial refund, which we were grateful for, however it still caused us to have to bathe in the sink throughout the rest of the trip. You do have to climb 5 flights of stairs, which was torture, especially with your luggage. There are a lot of local restaurants in bars walking distance from the room that we enjoyed. The subway stop is also not too far from the room. The NYC main tourist attractions, are going to be about 30-40 mins away weather you take the train or an uber. We did't spend too much time in the room, which saved us, but hopeful the shower is fixed/replaced before the next guest arrives.
