Overlooking a courtyard
VRBO Bear stayed here - 09/30/2009 What an incredible adventure I had on this trip. My travel companions and I hadn’t been to New York City before so we were lucky to find this great studio right in the heart of Manhattan. For a short-term stay, it was the perfect amount of space for the 3 of us. We had a full kitchen so we could eat in if we chose not to dine out at the multiple restaurants nearby. Amenities included a cozy sofa for resting and reading, a TV with cable, internet access and FAX machine.
When I arrived late to New York, I was able to get quick access to the studio and rest in a very comfy bed. In a city that is full of high rise buildings, my room overlooked a courtyard with several trees. From one of the windows, we could even see the top of the Empire State Building. Speaking of the Empire State Building, it was right up the street!
Since we were new to the city, we started out with a bus tour, which gave us great ideas of places to see and things to do. Lots of people on the bus waved hello to me and were “beary” friendly. I enjoyed the warm weather and being a “tag-along” as we got tickets for the “Lion King” show, visited Times Square, Ground Zero, Central Park and multiple other places. My favorite was the Staten Island Ferry ride.
After such busy days and walking long distances, it was nice to come home at the end of the day and find a quiet, comfortable place to rest. As busy as we were, we really enjoyed our time and would love to return to New York again next year. This was the perfect home base for an awesome escapade.

Why the Owner Chose Midtown
Midtown Manhattan is closest to all the attractions, but convenient for business travelers too. We've hosted all types of guests, including families, international visitors, and hospital patients from NYU and Memorial Sloan Kettering. La Guardia and JFK airports are pretty close (depending on traffic, of course!). The building is in a quieter neighborhood, but close to the exciting attractions in the city.
The Unique Benefits at this Apartment
Most apartments and hotel rooms in NYC are very, very small. This apartment is spacious, has a really nice full kitchen with marble counters that is larger than most studio apartment kitchens, and a comfortable living and sleeping space. The building has a large fitness center that is open for extended hours, and even has a sauna and a steam room. The Cinema Room is also a really nice touch.
Enjoy fabulous views of Manhattan from the tallest building in Manhattan.
NYU Hospital's extensive facilities are right across the street.
A foodies dream store...their description is "purveyors of fine food, wine and kitchenware".
The United Nations is within walking distance. We've had many Mission and Embassy guests and employees stay with us.
This is the "grand dame" of ibraries. Visit to see the architecture and beautiful lions on the front steps. Bryant Park is behind the library, location of Fashion Week. Free Wifi, great people watchin
There's plenty of things to do - ice skating or Xmas tree viewing in winter, deluxe shopping year-round, NBC Studios Tour, Top of the Rock Observation Deck with unobstructed views of the city.
Famous glatt kosher deli. Fabulous corned beef, and chicken soup. To quote one of their reviews: ""It's a deli that makes your mouth water". Front of restaurant is a sports bar with large screen TVs;
