This pad was awesome! The pictures accurately show what it is looks like. The place is tucked away but you don't feel as if you're in a dungeon. The neighborhood is very driveable but why would you with 2 major bus stops and the A/C train a stone's throw away? Plenty of corner stores and restaurants within walking distance. The neighborhood is quiet and from what I could tell, safe (as you can be in any city).

Cathy is a wonderful host who lays low. She lets you enjoy the space without being overbearing. Very pleasant interactions with her. She actually has quite the sense of humor. She ribbed us a little bit for having the heat up pretty high. Hey, we're Southerners! Cold isn't really our thing, LOL.

I know when people go to NYC, then tend to flock to hotels in the city. Why spend all that $ for a box with tourist all over the place? Rent out Cathy's spot and save that money for all the great food and events!!!
