When looking for places to stay in NYC I was at first I was apprehensive staying in a room in someone's home, as we wanted privacy for our trip. I realized that our budget couldn't afford a whole place.
At Rekas place I felt we had ample privacy and got to connect with our host, too! Reka was so quick to respond and made the check in so smooth.
I lost my mask on the walk in to the AIR bnb and she offered me one to go to dinner with.
I will say the terrace was the BEST part about all of it, aside from her hospitality. It was a sweet touch for us to celebrate with champagne and a city view.
Her home is decked out with plants and a Berkey filter which h provides the world's best at home filtered water..
Thank you Reka for the local tips as well! We went to Ippudo and had some of the best ramen we have ever eaten (a true close 2nd to Momofuku).
Thank you for your communication and spirit. As herbalists and plant foragers we loved the plants and green space too. We will return on our next trip to NY!
