Rachel was very friendly and accommodating. She walked with me to the subway and showed me how to get a metro pass. She also had a nicely printed list of suggestions for things to do in New York City. My seven-year-old loved her, and I liked her, too! Finding a place to park on the street near Rachel's place was a non-issue. I would highly recommend her place to anybody. In fact, I already have! Our stay at her place seriously could not have been better :)
