Affinia Dumont-safe neighborhood?

Okay last minute craziness has set in. I am thinking of changing our hotel to the Affinia Dumont on E 34th St between Lexington and 3rd Ave. Just wondering if this is safe neighborhood. It is just me and my daughter (14) traveling together and I guess I am just getting a little nervous before we leave. The hotel looks wonderful and has gotten excellent reviews. Thanks!

Yes--the neighborhood is safe!

I stayed here just 6 weeks ago and it is a very safe area. We absolutely loved it!! We found it to be a convenient location and I would stay there again in a hearbeat.

Echoing the previous responses....yes, it%26#39;s perfectly safe! The Affinia%26#39;s get great reviews, so enjoy!

Thanks so much all of you! That makes me feel so much better. The hotel looks wonderful on their website and I just read a bunch of the reviews also. Thanks again!

You%26#39;ll love the Dumont and the neighborhood is wonderful. Be sure to ask for a room on a high floor. The view is to die for. I%26#39;m sooo jealous!

Have a great trip!

Great choice - did you find a good deal?

I keep checking for our upcoming trip in 12 days, and haven%26#39;t found anything else affordable and/or worth switching to yet ...

Thanks Tess, I did ask for a high floor, hopefully we will get one with a view of the water. I am sure any views will be fine.

Kitty, I found the price of $299 a night for the first two nights and then a little more for the last three. I found it on quikbook.com and then I went to the Affinia website and also found that they had the same prices. I thought these were pretty good prices. I have now switched hotels for the 3rd time in 2 days. I am very happy with my final decision. Hope you find a good price, it sounds like this will be a good choice for us.

The Dumont is a great hotel. We stayed in a room almost at the top and it was a fantastic view. The room was very large. As you turn right out of the hotel you come to a lovely area with many restaurants. We found this an excellent place to stay. Enjoy!

It%26#39;s a good neighborhood, and convenient, too. You%26#39;ve got the #6 local Lexington line around the corner (Park Ave. at 33rd St.). The uptown side will take you one stop to Grand Central, where you can make connections to the west side. But you%26#39;re close enough to just walk up to Grand Central if you like. It%26#39;s also an easy walk down Park Ave. to Union Square, a young area that your daughter should like. Lots of shopping geared to the college-aged crowd (it%26#39;s just near NYU). If you don%26#39;t feel like walking, just take the downtown #6 to Union Square (three stops).

Thank you everyone for making me feel better. Hardly slept last night I was so excited!

Bettina, thank so much for the directions. I am sure my daughter will love the area around NYU, she is 14 going on 21:)

We leave shortly to go to Minneapolis to stay the night and catch our early flight tomarrow, we will be there soon!!
