The areas that are covered contain sufficient food and drink recommendations for anyone. All the tourist spots, and some less well-known museums, are adequately covered. (Make sure you notice the admissions charges, as some of these border on the astronomical.)
There are only a few pages of accommodations listed, but these are well chosen and cover a wide price range. You’ll probably want to do further research on apartments, hostels, etc. Be warned, though, that cheap hotels in NYC usually are dirty hotels.
While Manhattan certainly is not the violent hellhole that it is often portrayed as, it is more violent than comparable cities - London, Tokyo, even LA.
