This apartment was so much better than advertised. The communication that the hosts had with us was above five star. They really know how to be hosts for a traveler. We have rented many places through Airbnb and VRBO ( as well as direct with owners) and the one issue has always been the ability to be in contact if there is a problem or a question. The hosts checked in on us prior to us landing and after we checked in. The apartment was spotless, great views, little things like cable TV, Lots of dishes and towels, comfy bed, etc. Fabulous neighborhood and great location in the neighborhood, easy access to the subway, grocery stores, places to eat, tours, etc. Our host also had made her only NYC guide that we used extensively. We cannot give a more glowing recommendation. Thank you so much.
