My partner and I stayed at Mark's place in Washington Heights for a week on our first trip to NYC. We were very happy with Mark's space and the neighborhood -- especially the food! Access to The MTA 1-train was easy peasy as Mark stated -- just a couple minutes from the door on foot. We did find that we slept better on the "Big Comfy Couch" than in the bed; but I suppose we all different preferences. Overall GREAT EXPERIENCE -- I'd happily book Mark's space again!
