I had a wonderful extended holiday weekend at Samantha's house. Everything was ridiculously clean, comfy and cozy. The train that runs closeby doesn't sound loud once inside. It's a wonderful house with privacy, a deliciously hot shower, and amazing location. I regret not planning to stay longer. There's so much to do and see and eat in the walking distance area around the house that I didn't even make it to the places in Manhattan that came highly recommended. The cafe across the street has wonderful breakfast empanadas. I had a late arrival so I appreciated the graciousness with that and the cool water waiting for me on the dresser. I also appreciated the lil soap and the check-ins by Sam. A+ communication.
