The apartment was great and true to the pictures. Quite a generous size for a NY apartment, very bright and good views. It was ready and clean on arrival. The kitchen was well equipped and the little starter kit was a nice touch. WiFi was fast. Surprisingly the general noise from the street did not carry through, though you do hear the occasional sirens. The building reception was very forthcoming for any help requested. The small grocery shop across the road is also very convenient. Check-out was super easy. So will definitely like to stay there again.
