Shana was a great host; communication was quick the few times we had a question. The apt is in the perfect Upper West Side location, especially for anyone in the City to enjoy cultural offerings. It's a quick walk to Lincoln Center for NYPhil, NYC Ballet, Juilliard, theater, and MET opera. 3 blocks to subway, Central Park, Riverside Park, 5 blocks to a Trader Joes, NYPL branch across the street. Restaurants and shopping all convenient. Shana's unit is in a rather new doorman building with an amazing gym, children's playroom, and practice rooms (many Juilliard students live here). Minor negative was noise from the firehouse close by but heh -- it's the City and we easily put up with it. We stayed for 5 weeks and truly were reluctant to leave. Thank you, Shana, for sharing your lovely apt with us.
