As a frequent visitor to New York and former resident, I'm all too familiar with miserable, tiny hotel rooms that are pure ripoffs and underwhelming apartments (I've lived in plenty of them). So, I can't think of a better place or location to visit the city than Steve's perfect apartment - it looks like a postcard. We also had so much space that 7 people managed to not get on each other's nerves! All 3 queen beds were incredibly comfortable, the place is so bright, and it's always quiet; but when we wanted energy and action we just had to step outside...we visited a sports bar, wine bar, dive bar and cocktail lounge close by. Restaurant row is an avenue away, and I had more interesting and diverse cuisine during my stay than I did when actually living here. Easy to get around when we wanted to venture further, as Times Square is right there and so many of the subway lines run through it. Everything I read about the host on the previous review (and other listing) is accurate; he spent a lot of time talking to us, trying to understand what we all wanted, and was so conscientious that he managed to find restaurants that worked for everyone (we had a lot of diverse dietary needs - from a vegetarian to someone who won't touch a vegetable or non-animal product). He didn't leave until he made sure that we had a good plan in place and that there were no more questions. Also, the wifi is blazing fast - we would all be on our phones, ipads, and laptops at once and it didn't skip a beat. Staying here is a no brainer, and I'll definitely be calling this home every time I come back
