Stella's place is very good combination of location, amenities and value. Old-school building with updated apartment interior and fixtures. Close proximity to restaurants, bars, grocery markets, convenience store, laundromat and dry cleaners. Just a very few blocks to subway stations and NYC ferry terminal. Central Park and museum row are within reasonable walking distance. Second floor view of the little neighborhood park across the street makes for some good people and dog watching. We felt comfortable, safe and secure. Windows are curtainless and streetlight shines in at night. You might bring a sleep mask if that would bother you.
