Akiko was a great host, friendly, very easy to reach and takes care of whatever you need! This is a great apartment in a perfect location, spacious and comfortable. The building is good, across NYPD, so neighbor-hood is safe! Times sq is 5 min by walk and other touristic attractions are very close. You can walk basically everywhere. Huge selection of restorans and bars in 9 Av. I would definitely recommend Akiko's place : )
