This apartment was very clean and perfectly located for us to visit Manhattan, see friends and attend the game. The owner was easy to reach. It should be stated that the rental office for the apartment building is located in the same building, just feet away. This would not be a problem for people who DON'T have very loud, unruly dogs who over-react to strangers coming in and out all weekday long. The apartment has no garbage disposal and there were no spices other than salt and pepper available for cooking, so. bring your own. We slept well and there was tons of gorgeous grass for dog walking. The pool is huge and the kids loved it. Overall, a very comfortable stay.
