We had a great stay in NY at Summers place. It is a little further out of the city than most people would usually be looking for but, considering its proximity to the Subway, it is perfect. It is about a 10/12 minute walk to the station and from there you can get a line directly into the city, we mainly used the A, which brings you into the main touristy places, and doesn't take more than 30 min. It is usually empty enough at the stop so you can choose a seat, which is a nice little perk.
The apartment itself was so clean and tidy - Summer had it in perfect condition. She was also so flexible about check in and check out times, which suited us for our flights. Summer was really helpful and left us notes on how to get around, nice places in the area and little details about the apartment, which was very handy.
The one thing that wasn't ideal was on the Friday and Saturday night, there was a lot of noise across the street. It is loud, but Summer provided us with earplugs so that helped with that. The Sunday night was much quieter, and I presume mid week would be too.
Over all it was a great place to stay, and I would recommend it.
