Although Liz was away throughout my stay, she left me a plethora of helpful advice. The room itself was incredibly spacious (even more than the pictures) and the apartment was only 40 minutes away from Lower Manhattan, where my internship was. The neighborhood was safe, quiet, and somewhat lively, with a few bars and restaurants. Overall, Liz was a fantastic host, her roommates were very accommodating and nice people, and I would recommend this listing to anyone looking to stay in New York.
