Not any word of the previous guests were exaggerated. Deena is an amazing lady, welcomes you in a way you immediately feel at home. So is the apartment, fully equipped which says a lot from the lady of the house. Well cleaned and treated with respect which invites you automatically to do the same. Deena and Mark live on the second floor but in case you might think that they are non stop checking you, don't be afraid, they do respect your privacy extremely, you hardly see them. The environment of the house and travel time of +/-30 minutes are ideal to calm down after visits to NY City. Just one thing, in case you really do need full silence during night, notice that the house has wooden floors and occupied by the lady of the house, her husband and 5 cats. We loved it to hear the cats crossing sometimes and felt comfortable knowing there was always somebody present in case you needed something. Thanks again Deena for helping me celebrating our daughters anniversary with getting her the real 'american coockies' - as we call them here.
