Danielle was there to meet me and hand over the keys. She carried my heavy suitcase up the five flights of stairs and explained how everything worked in the apartment. This was reassuring as I was there for two nights on my own, before my husband arrived.
The apartment is situated in a beautiful neighbourhood with an abundance of restaurants and grocery stores which sold delicious takeaway meals. It is only a few blocks to the subway entrance at 86th Street and close to some fabulous clothing shops.
Morning sunlight streaks across the lounge area and the apartment was clean and bright. I was delighted to discover a bath in the small bathroom.
Danielle promptly replied to any queries and was always warm and friendly in her welcome, leaving us some wine and treats.
