The apartment was exactly as described and was an excellent base for exploring Manhattan. It was also a lovely and peaceful neighbourhood to come back to after the 'peopleitis' Manhattan can cause sometimes. We had a delicious pizza not a minute from the apartment and started each day with a yummy pain au chocolat from the bakery around the corner whose name I've now forgotten but which was in the helpful booklet Shannon and Dahrehn provide. We did not get to meet them unfortunately, but we were only there for a short time and everything was in order. Thanks for sharing your apartment with us!
