The apartment is in a very quiet and safe neighborhood. It takes just a few minutes to walk to Central Park, which is ideal if you want to go for a walk or jog during your stay. It is also conveniently located to a couple subway stops, which makes exploring the city easy. David was a very responsive host - I felt I could get any question answered almost immediately. He was unable to meet us at the apartment the day we arrived - we picked up the keys at his apartment, which was not too far away. The apartment is as pictured - open, simple, clean. Overall, we had a nice, stress-free stay.
