My son stayed at Aspen's apartment for 10 weeks while completing an internship in NYC. Aspen is just lovely - a friendly, fabulous host who is incredibly responsive. She was very quick to answer questions prior to our stay, check-in was smooth, and during the stay she was quick to resolve a few issues. My son locked himself out once, and another time, the a/c broke - when he texted Aspen about each issue, she responded immediately. She got him in touch w/the building manager when he got locked out, and she had a new a/c unit installed within a day. This type of responsiveness is invaluable. Also, we cannot say enough about the location of this apartment - literally everything you could want is right outside your front door!
Great restaurants (be sure to try Berlin Doner and the frite place!!!), cafes, Washington Square Park, and subway. Trader Joe's is even within walking distance! The apartment itself is so quiet, which was wonderful. It is well-loved and could use a bit of TLC, and we did need to do a bit of cleaning when we first arrived. Overall, a fabulous stay. Thank you so much Aspen!
