I was a little worried about the space, however it was very comfortable for the eight of us. everything was close by, including the metro stop, and one train to both Times Square and Central Park so didn't need to transfer trains which was great for us with kids. The host was very accommodating with early check in and the luggage storage was a life saver. also there is a large waiting/seating area that was ideal for us to get kids ready to go out into the cold.
