Karsten was very prompt and helpful over email, and had some good tips on how to get to the apt from the airport.
The place itself was exactly as described, and was a great delight. The decor is great, enjoyable without being overbearing. The shower was amazing - *great* water pressure and hot water availability.
The bedroom is large, and very quiet (it helps that this apartment is on a quiet street but less than a block from the subway station).
We ended up purchasing a small room fan to keep us cool at night, but this is only because I have a New Yorker's aversion to sleeping with the windows open ;-)
