Leora was not in the city when we arrived but she had arranged for a friend to wait for us in the apartment and show us around and give us the keys.
The location was wonderful; short walk to the subway, one stop to Grand Central Station, lovely neighbourhood especially the area of the piers, and incredible views of the Manhatton skyline from the apartment and especially from the roof terrace!
There were a few things that the apartment lacked; a microwave and a toaster in particular but this did not interfere with our enjoyment of the place. The one thing we really missed was not having a designated place to put our belongings. We had to live out of our suitcases but it would have been nice to have had a couple of drawers at least.
Overall we had a lovely time at Leora's and would give her 4stars!
