Map & Owner's Profile
Actually in Times Square-Stunning View on Broadway
Year Purchased: 2006
Why the Owner Chose Midtown
We enjoy being the only condo actually in Times Square. New York is a great place to visit and it is fun being in the heart of the theater district. We visit New York every few months to not only make sure that the condominium is in top shape but to enjoy theater, restaurants and shopping. The lights of Times Square are awesome from our living room window. The building has 24 hour concierge service and security. Spotlight Vacation Club also has condos at Lake Tahoe, Waikiki Beach, Turtle Bay Resort and Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
The Tkts Tkts booth is one block from our condo so we can easily check on low priced theater tickets at the last moment. The subway stations are 1/2 block from our location so we can easily get to Yankee Stadium, the Mets new stadium or the US Open Tennis Stadium as well as the airports.

I was very nervous about renting from a person rather than a hotel, but Bill was amazing from the start. We stayed for 5 nights and loved it so much, we begged to add one more night! After a week in New York with Broadway shows, the US Open Golf Tournament, sightseeing and wonderful restaurants...the one thing my family and I are STILL talking about is how amazing this place was. It really made the trip. It is spotlessly clean, tastefully decorated, and in a great building. Being golfers we were excited about the outdoor putting green with a view of Times Square, and the golf swing simulator by the fitness center. For those of you concerned about location- you simply cannot get any better than this. It is smack dab right in the center of Times Square. The doormen were amazing and went above and beyond their call of duty. I PROMISE you will not be disappointed with this condo. Thank you again Bill for the dream vacation spot. I hope it is available next time I visit!! -Katy, Micah, Brett and Judy

The condo was extremely quiet given the streets below. The huge windows made us want to stare out of them all evening. The linens were clean as were the kitchen and bathroom. The rooftop deck in the evening was a treat especially since the weather was very hot. TSQ Brasserie around the corner was a really nice French spot that was great for breakfast and served large portions. The Italian fast food buffet at the corner was open until 2:00am and came in handy a couple of evenings when the nights got too late and we were too tired to care. It was an exceptional stay! We could hardly pack up to leave, we wanted to stay.

This is the second time I have stayed in this apartment. We were greeted as were last year by Milton at the concierge desk. He is so helpful and kind, as are Wallly, and Mr Brown with an E as we call him. The view from the living room is amazing. The bedroom and bath are large and very comfortable. I can't imagine staying anywhere else. Everything is so close by (grocery store, train, fabulous resturants,). We always go just outside to tkts tkts for reduced priced theatre tickets. Bill is wonderful to work with. I can't wait to return next year

ANNUAL GIRLS' TRIP TO NYC~~OUR NEW FAVORITE!!

Shhhh, I would rather keep this secret to myself but, in good conscience, I feel must share it with you. Every year we gals come to NYC the first week of December to shop and see shows. This year was more perfect than usual thanks to Bill's apartment. Location, Location, Location~~the BEST!! It has all the amenities necessary for comfortable luxury. All photos depict reality. The views from the living room, bedroom, rooftop garden, health club and game room are fantastic. From the apartment, you can see the Times Square hustle & bustle and actually watch the NY's Eve ball drop if you are lucky enough to be here!! Food and wine shopping were a short walk and the subway was right around the corner, less than a half a block's walk. Milton and the other concierges, as well as all the doormen, were super friendly, courteous and knowledgable. Many restaurants deliver here if you're too tired to go out after shopping all day. And the kitchen was so well equipped we made our own gourmet brunch every morning. Bill was professional, responsive and helpful and provided excellent instructions for everything. The kitchen is a perfect size for hiring a chef to come in to prepare a special dinner or to give cooking lessons. I am a travel consultant and will recommend this property to all my clients. But save the first week in December for us!!

Amazing Apartment in the Middle of Everything

Everything about this rental is top of the line. For the same price of a hotel room in Times Square, you can rent a fully furnished top of the line 1 bedroom apartment and save money by cooking some of your meals in the state of the art kitchen. Every amenity is in this apartment including wi-fi included in the price (try to find a hotel that offers free wi-fi), a printer for printing off tickets, bathroom items such as soap and shampoo, and a bed that is so comfortable you want to sleep in everyday. The location is amazing with everything within 1 mile and multiple subway stops within 2 blocks. The communication and arrangements were amazing and if I am ever in New York again, I will be staying at this property.

My husband and I stayed in Bills apartment 16D for only four nights, (not long enough in New York), it was fantastic staying here, we were right in Times Square with really cool views from our window, unbelievable and a magical first visit to New York. The Apartment is very clean and and very comfortable, it was a very welcome and comfortable sleep after flying from Australia that day. Has a great size bathroom, Very well equipped your every need has been thought of, Bill and his wife are great hosts, anything you need to know they are only to willing to assist. There is a concierge you can use if need to or you can just venture out and make your own way easily. Walking distance to lots of sights, you will do a lot of walking in New York. If you go to stay at Bills Apartment you wont be disappointed and pop in and say hi to Joe on 46th at Patzeria Perfect Pizza for some fun! There are many amazing places to eat, and so much to do and see, make sure you catch a show while you are there. I can't say enough just wish we had longer here. Thanks Bill & Barbara

We have just returned from a world trip, part of which was a week in Bills apartment in Times Square. We could not fault a thing and the view from the living room is overwhelming. The apartment is very roomy and has everything you require, it felt just like home, if only!! I had to pinch myself everytime I looked out the window. Times Square is buzzing 24/7 and every night looks like NYEve. We saw a different show on Broadway each evening,(the half price ticket booth is 4 mins from home) it's all so close, just 5 mins to all theatres.The service provided by both the day and evening concierge, Larry and Milton was fabulous, nothing was too much trouble. Bill was great to deal with also and provided us with all the information needed prior to our arrival. We WILL definitely be going back to this apartment, hopefully with more time next year. A fabulous location and you MUST stay here in NY City.It's seriously the ONLY apartment block, right in the middle of Times Square.There's restaurants everywhere and you can shop till you drop literally (the shops are open all night) Everywhere is accessable by subway or on foot. This is simply the BEST location and you really do feel like you live here as everyone in the block is so friendly.

this apartment is fantastic. I have been to NYC several times and have stayed at the Crown Plaza and Double tree. this is by far the best. I will always stay here in the future. This trip was a Girls trip ( 3 of us) the concierge service was so personable and good. Every morning as we were leaving we were greeted and offered advise on where to go and how to get there. Comming HOME we were greeted as well with such friendly welcoming as if we did actually live there. My only negative is that if you are staying with more than 2 adults is the pull out couch is not sutable for an adult. It was not comfortable at all (keep in mind that I am a middle aged woman) and the extra pillows smelled bad (like sweaty hair) but would be fine for children. If we do this again as a group of adults I will not pull out the couch but sleep on the end. Other than the extra sleeping this was fantastic and will return most definatly
