Spacious two story apartment in the middle of Manhattan. Superbright, contemporary and nicely decorated. Amazing view of the city and the new Freedom Tower. Clean and as close to a hotel you could possibly get. Comfortable beds and great pillows. Reliable and fast wifi. Close to everything a tourist would want to visit and close to almost every subway line. Close enough to Central Park and around the corner from Bryant Park. Teresa who hosted us was lovely and helped in so many ways. Supersmooth check in and lovely people at the front desk of the residences.

On the negative side - because in the center of the city this is not a very quiet or calm area. Because a lack of well functioning blinds the entire apartment blinks along with the billboards in Times Square. Not an issue of course unless you have small children who find this more interesting than sleeping. It is also superbusy right outside which means hard to get to and from with a taxi and it is not a family friendly part of Manhattan. For a home the apartment is poorly equipped with cleaning equipment and somewhat poorly equipped with kitchen gear. We ended up buying cleaning stuff to be able to clean ourselves.

Would we stay there again - probably yes when it comes to the actual apartment - and probably no considering the location as we are a family with young kids.
