Overall
Location is ok and is 20 minutes from The Piers, Chinatown or Union Square by car..You can hear your neighbors in their rooms above you or the rooms next to you. I was on the 17th floor and i still could here all the traffic and people form the street like the windows were open even though they were closed.
