Filomena's apartment is small and plain, but clean, functional and complete. The proximity to public transportation makes it perfect for trips to Manhattan. (Unfortunately, the nearest subway station is currently out of service due to renovation but other stations / buses are not far away.)
During our week-long vacation, we were warmly welcomed by Rafaella and helped with words and deeds, for all our wishes there was a quick solution. Noise was not a problems, we didn't need any earplugs to sleep - and didn't expect it to be as quiet as in the country.
In short: Very good value for the money for a short stay in NYC.
