Svjetlana is a nice and friendly host with a beautiful apartment. The apartment is very close to a subway station so it's easy to explore Manhattan from there. I stayed for about a week, so it was great to have the possibility to have my clothes washed as well. If you're sensitive to noise though you might want to bring a pair of earplugs as theres a constant humming of traffic which I suppose is a bit difficul to escape on Manhattan.

Anyway, overall a very good experience.
