Elaine was so very accomodating and the apartment was wonderful! i absolutely adored the neighborhood and the C train is a super short walk away which was perfect for exploring the city. be warned though- if you are looking for a super touristy fancy place to stay this isn't it. This is the real NYC away from the congestion of slow-moving tourists and fancy business people. This is the part of Manhattan that I've come to love! I would love to stay here again!
