Karenes apartment is in a wonderful location in the village - Magnolia bakery is just around the corner, it's a short walk to Chelsea Market and there are lots of lovely boutiques and restaurants very close by. The apartment itself is pristine with a great shower and a very comfortable bed. What made my trip most enjoyable however was Karenes kindness and helpfulness. She was the perfect host - taking time to make recommendations and generally going above and beyond to make sure our stay was flawless ... and it was :-) I hope to stay at Karenes every time I visit New York.
