As a HSP (“Highly Sensitive Person,”) I like New York City but I don’t love it. It can be overstimulating and overwhelming. I enjoy visiting, but it has always been a challenge to find somewhere to stay where I can have some “downtime” without the constant noise of the “City that never sleeps.”
Staying with Dana and Guy in their lovely apartment away from the hubbub was a welcome retreat that allowed me to enjoy the city while still getting my quiet time in.
They were genuinely welcoming and hospitable, which made us feel more comfortable, especially for my boyfriend who was visiting the city for the first time. Knowing we had someone we could ask random questions about tourist issues (are we allowed to take a small backpack to the Statue of Liberty? Where is a good vegan place in Manhattan?) made it all that much easier.
We would highly recommend to all!
Thanks so much!!
