Alexandra was a wonderful host and the place was spotless. It was spacious and had all that you would need. I am not from New York, so this may be common in the city, but there were only air conditioning units in the two bedrooms... the rest of the house was super hot, especially the bathroom. We did come during one of the hottest weeks so I am sure if you are not coming in July it would be perfect. The lack of air was difficult and the air conditioner itself was loud. The metro station closed to the place was under construction so we did have to walk about 15 min to the metro. There is a supermarket close which was very nice. I would stay there again just not in July.
