FAQs
Transportation
How do you recommend getting around New York City?
We highly suggest either walking (depending on how far you are trying to go) or using the NYC Subway system - it is convenient, quick, and cost effective!
Yellow Taxis are also reliable and will help to avoid any surge pricing during busier times with more driver demand. Uber and Lyft are also highly convenient options!
Is the subway safe?
Yes! We both take it almost every day.
Despite what you may have heard, you should not be worried at all to use the public transportation in New York City. Just be sure to travel together, be aware of your surroundings, and you will be absolutely fine.
If I want to drive into the city where should I park?
For parking near the reception or other options near hotels: we suggest Park Whiz and Spot Hero

Helpful Tips:
New York City is a grid and the train lines follow it! North is uptown, and south is downtown.
For example:
If you are at 34th Street and are looking to go to Canal, you are going DOWNTOWN.
If you are at Canal and you are looking to go to 34th Street, you are going UPTOWN.
Please note: Welcome Drinks & Trinity Church will be South (DOWNTOWN) from all hotels.
There are only two train lines that operate East to West in Manhattan:
