This place was great. You have two trains that are roughly 15 minutes walking distance. This was my first time in New York and had a blast. The apartment was very well kept and clean, there were always small snacks to grab and go in the kictchen (I.E. granola bars, oreo packs, fruit gummies, etc) Micheal also provided us with towels which saved me luggage room lol. It was a bonus to have a washer and dryer in the unit. So if you pack light and are staying a while it definitely comes in hand. The neighborhood/block is in develop alot of new building are going up on. We had our own mini fridge and a TV which was pretty sweet. Within 2 blocks you have two coffee shops a grocery store and two spots. Tried out local beers since there are several breweries that are within a couple miles of the apartment. I suggest having brunch at the civil service it's only a few blocks away maybe 15 min walk. Overall, great experience and if I visit New York again I will reach out to Micheal to see if there is any availability.
