This is a comfortable one bedroom (king and separate twin) with living room (good size couch) and kitchen. The neighborhoods east and south are mostly residential; going west takes you in easy walking distance (two blocks) to a typical NYC grocery store and continuing west offers access to a variety of casual snack and take-out restaurants. There's a good bakery (Sal and Dom's) a block away in the east direction. Having a way to keep and prepare food based on your specific dietary preferences (typically breakfast, snacks and dinner) or stashing leftovers instead of tossing them saves a lot in cost and digestive distress (from 'road food'). MTA and alternative transportation connections are convenient and easy.
