Rod was waiting for us at the apartment. We'd previously arranged to call him as we left JFK and this worked well. He showed us around, explained how the apartment worked and even gave us hints on where to go and where to eat. It's a great apartment, centrally located for us in a really buzzy area of the city. We loved it! The apartment was all it was claimed to be and we easily got to the Opera, MoMA, the Village, Uptown and Chelsea market although on our last day, having breakfast and a stroll around Grand Central reminded us of what a fantastic food market there is there. We perhaps should have eaten in more and taken advantage of the goodies on display - maybe next time. It was easy to walk to places and easy to jump on the subway just a couple of blocks away. We walked the Highline too, Which passes close to the apartment and it goes all the way to the Whitney museum. We found great eateries in the area and it was a lovely place to come back to and relax as well. Rod and his team made our stay easy and enjoyable. New York is an amazing city made the more enjoyable by having a lovely apartment to enjoy it from. Would definitely recommend it and we would love to return. If you want to do NYC do it from this great location - you 'll feel you belong!
