When your stomach gets grumbling and you don't feel like cooking, just step outside and take your pick of nearby eateries – you'll find everything from classic New York City bagels to Lebanese and Mexican restaurants. The apartment itself is quite compact, but it has everything you need to rustle up light meals, answer work emails, or just kick back and relax.

Home truths
Parking in New York City can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible.
The kitchen here is very small and lacks counter space, so we think it's better suited to prepping lighter bites than large meals.
Being in an apartment building, you can expect to bump into other residents of the building during your stay.
Home comforts are lacking here. We think it's best suited to those looking for a base to use when travelling for work.
