Phil’s place was perfect for a week of NYC sightseeing. First the location is extremely convenient- to Citifield to see a Mets game by subway- to Brooklyn Navy Yard to catch water ferry to Wall St, Battery Park views of Lady Liberty and to Midtown-neighborhood restaurants, takeout and delivery- Lincoln Market (my fave grocery store). Lots of free street parking. Also nearby affordable garages where we parked a second car that we didn’t need while in the city.
The unit. As a studio, it is very very spacious. The bathroom is large as is the closet. There are many table top surfaces - work desk-bar(with stools) dining table. The kitchen area, while not for cooking, offered all the items necessary otherwise. Bed and convertible couch were perfectly comfortable. Much thought went into furnishing this place. It’s a gem.
The unit and building itself is secure and safe. The neighborhood is very residential. Parking the car out front or around the corner was no problem.
The unit is perfect for families with lots of space for a little one (or two) to spread out toys and freely roam about.
Phil is a very communicative and attentive host.
I highly recommend his place to all travelers.
