Ric's apartment is just the perfect place to visit NYC. It's in a quiet area with shops and other local amenities. It's very close to Grand Street subway station, which is served by the L line and is just a few stops from Manhattan. It literally takes 15 minutes to get to Lower/Midtown Manhattan. Although we did not meet him, Ric was very responsive to our messages. The apartment itself is big, clean, and quiet. In particular, the beds were extremely comfy! Will stay again here in the future. Thanks again Ric for the wonderful stay!
