NYC/New York The good, bad and ugly from the eyes of a midwestern FAQs

Welp, we just got back from NYC and it was a great trip! I was excited but nervous to go with my family. Most things went smoothly and I'm looking forward to going again someday! There is soooo  much information out there and it can be overwhelming so I will just sum up how our trip went. Travel day or what I like to call as Day 0:  We arrived at Laguardia around 3:30. Took and took a taxi to our hotel at  https://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/nyctm-fairfield-inn-and-suites-new-york-manhattan-fifth-avenue/  . I was very underwhelmed about our very basic hotel. It grew on me quickly  though because 1. It was tucked around the corner of 5th Ave. (read quiet) 2. With only 6 rooms on each floor it was cozy.  (and quiet) 3. The breakfast was great!  4. It was clean! I would give this hotel 4 stars and would definitely stay there again. We checked in and then started walking around. It was very overwhelming to get used to north, east, south, west and where do the streets go up and down.
