Perfect location, street below has everything you need. Ferry ride is so easy and free. Get Uber or Lyft to get there - well worth the $45 and 30 mins to get there from Newark.
Elle and Rob have so many things to assist in your stay. We would leave at about 10-11 each morning and get back between 10pm and midnight each night. Felt safe. Very generous hosts.
Also definitely use the metro card to get around!
What a fantastic 4 days in NY
