Our family of 5 came to stay for 6 nights when I ran the NY marathon. The location of this apartment was ideal for everything we needed! We had grocery stores, restaurant, GF bakery, and subway to name a few locations within a few blocks. It felt very safe and secure the neighborhood. Our host answered us with any questions within moments. We found our way easily to the Statue of Liberty, Time Square, Central Park etc. I felt the price we paid for this space was great! She had milk and a few other groceries in the mini kitchen space for us upon arrival as well as fresh tulips for decorations. We made small breakfast to start our day. Only thing I wish we had was a kitchen sink... we washed dishes in the bathroom sink, but we were aware of no kitchen when we rented the space. I highly recommend this space if your looking for a centrally located space. It is clean and worked well for us for sleeping and showering before our adventures each day.
