Genes place was right next to Central Park which was nice. However, we struggled to rest as the radiators in the apartment were very noisy and would pop and screech throughout the night, waking us up multiple times. Unfortunately, these were the only source of heat for the building so it was too cold not to turn the radiators on. The building was also under construction at the time of our visit and there was a lot of noise due to that. Good value and would recommend if your a deep sleeper or will be spending most of your time exploring the city.
