Myself and 7 other students stayed at Robin's place for a conference in May. The apartment was exactly as shown in pictures and we all had a fabulous time! Robin left a ton of super helpful information about where to go locally and the best ways to get around the city. She also set up a ride for all of us from the airport to the apartment!

We felt completely safe in the neighbourhood. Our only precaution was that we didn't walk out at night alone.

The subway was relatively close and it took about 30 minutes to get to midtown. The travel time was the only downside... you'll definitely want to make sure you're prepared for the entire day before venturing out to avoid having to travel back and forth from the apartment.

I would definitely recommend Robin's apartment to anyone traveling with a big group or a family, looking to stay in NYC on a budget!
