The location is amazing! We went during Christmas. Everything thing we planned to do was 10 to 20 mins of walking to Rockefeller Center, The Summit, NY Public Library, Bryant Park, shopping and etc. If you plan to go outside of that radius it's worth it to get a metro card. I bought two & we never used them simply because of our plans. Otherwise the metro and NJ Transit are very accessible. Grand Central Terminal is also in walking distance. There's food markets, restaurants and quite a few CVS stores very close. There's a Bear Donut store right beside the main entrance to his place so you know. It's a small rental but comfy. Two people at most unless you're very comfortable with people you may travel with. The shower has great pressure and the bed was very comfy! Someone mentioned the elevator is directly across from it, which it is but it posed no issue for us. We were never disturbed by it once. It was perfect for my budget & we loved it!
