The apartment had the perfect size for 4 people. It was absolutely adequate for our stay in NYC. The next subway station was very close to the apartment, and in 15 to 20 minutes we were at the Times square. We also had a lot of options for buying groceries. London always responded very quick and nice and was always there when we needed help. In the night there was a lot of police presence in the area which made the way from the subway station to the apartment more comfortable for us despite the homeless and addicts in the streets. (You got this in whole NYC not only in this area)
