I had a very pleasant stay at Giselle's apartment. It's a VERY clean place, it's stylish and she is a very nice person to talk to! The kitchen is very well equipped and she gives you a great space in the fridge. It takes 25-30min to go to NYC's downtown (so you will not be a step to the Times Square), but the region is well served by buses and metro stations and it's easy to go to pretty much everywhere. I strongly recommend you to stay in this place at least for 5 days, so you can explore the city! If I have the opportunity, I definitely would stay at Giselle's home again!
