Very cute apartment near a gorgeous part of Central Park. The apartment is great as a base for getting around the city. It's a bit cramped to use as a regular apartment if you want to fully unpack, serve meals, etc. It is very noisy at night, but we got used to it. The furnishings were comfortable, the neighbors seemed friendly, and it was easy to find anything we needed nearby. Gene is a wonderful host, and always quick to respond to any questions.
