I stayed at Nic and Neil's apartment for five days in early June (sorry I am only getting around to writing now). Nic and Neil were really helpful about getting the keys, and were kind about coming out to meet us twice with a set (once for my boss, who arrived first, and once when I came in the next day when my boss wasn't around). The apartment is comfortably furnished and nice and clean. We really liked the sofa and the 3D TV! The location of the apartment can't be beat: there are fantastic restaurants and interesting stores everywhere, and it is very easy to go anywhere with the two subway stops that are very near. There is some street noise because the apartment is on the ground floor, but it is New York after all, and to be expected.
