Do not buy this book, you CAN get better. June 9, 2000 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I briefly saw the review under mine, and I agree. This book isn't the best guide book I have bought - and I wouldn't reccomend it to others. Sure, it has some ok reviews of places to eat and shops, but not a lot else. The layout isn't that appealing or friendly to use and I HAVE seen better. Usually I buy "Lonely Planet" (I dont know why I didnt this time! ) so if going to New York city, I dont think you should buy this book. "Lonely Planet" guides are a lot easier to read and include EVERYTHING you need to know. Anyways, this is just my opinion, I'm a traveller and I wanted a good travel book and this didn't provide.
Not that great June 2, 2000 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Used to Fodors and Lonely Planet books, I thought I'd try this one as it came so highly recommeded. I found it to be disorganized, with an awful index. There was very little history or neighborhood information that I'm so used to with the other travel books. It also doesn't keep restaurants, museums, hotels, etc. separate in the listings; it's very easy to miss stuff. Some of the restaurants have their logo above their review, which makes me wonder if some of them paid for placement. When we got to New York, we left the book in the hotel room and successfully relied on advice from the concierge, cabbies and just wandering around. Personally, I'd recommend Lonely Planet or Fodors!
Access New York City - the best!! October 21, 1999 10 out of 11 found this review helpful
I purchased the Access New York City guide earlier this year for my first trip to the Big Apple. My trip was made quite easy by the Access guide, which is incredible when you consider the complexities of New York City. It really is complete and just about all you need for a successful trip. Highly recommended!
Access Travel guides are the best. June 16, 1999 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
Just want to quickly say I have used many guides, and none beat Access. I have gotten to know NYC very well and really don't need a new guide book, but every two years I get a new ACCESS NYC anyway.
Wonderful, very, very helpful! April 29, 1999 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is a wonderful book with phone numbers, bus and subway maps, easy to follow sections, complete index not only by alpha but by topic. For visiting New York City, you don't need any other book!
