Such a positive experience from beginning to end. Host is very expedient in her honest, thoughtful and intelligent replies. Location is great! In the center of NYC, and easy to find. The lobby is bright & manned by a doorman 24/7. 3 fast, clean elevators. Unit street facing & is high enough w little ambient noise. Subways w/in few blocks & Target w groceries nearby. Although an efficiency, it's well appointed & spacious. Internet was high speed. Stay was January, yet the heat is stellar. 3 windows can be opened, only a few inches for safety, for fresh air. The bed and linens were excellent. Soft sheets , the mattress firm, but not too hard. Couch is large and comfortable. Office space w office chair, adjustable height desk & large curved monitor w HDMI ports. The bath is good sized, water pressure in the shower is fantastic and hot. Kitchen gas stove/gas oven & fridge/freezer like brand new. Lots of kitchen implements, trays, frying pans, pots. Salt, pepper & other spices. GREAT!!!
