What a great location! We flew in to JFK and used public transport to get all the way. It was really easy to get to everywhere from this spot. We walked to Central Park, to Times Square, to the Hudson, and took the subway to Harlem, the East Village and everywhere. SO MUCH GOOD FOOD everywhere we looked. I'm only disappointed I wasn't hungry enough to eat all the things that looked good. For instance, Sacco Pizza on 9th was $3 per slice and the owner Giuseppe has ran it for 40 years and says it's the best in the city. (And we couldn't argue.)
