The apartment had great amenities and had very stylish and comfortable furnishings. They must have updated the furniture since the photos were taken as the furniture pictured is not the same as the actual furniture in the apartment. The furniture not pictured was very nice so this is not a negative comment, just one to mention! The host was wonderful and always available for any question I had, and provided some local tips on the area. The area is great with a lot of great restaurants and shopping very close. A bit noisy from street traffic on 9th Avenue but the windows are double paned and sheltered much of the noise. I would recommend this apartment to anyone looking to stay longer term in Manhattan.
