Mirlande (Mimi) was a perfect host! She was very kind and not at all bothered by our late night arrival after our travel took longer than expected. She had stocked the fridge with snacks and orange juice. She also provided a selection of toiletries in case we forgot anything. Mimi seems laidback and friendly and also made extra effort to make us feel at home.

The room was very comfortable. A comfortable queen size bed with nice linens, a chair, a floor length mirror, a shelving unit, and hooks with hangers. I loved the sunny window. Plenty of space in the room even with all the furniture. The apartment has a large living room, large kitchen table, and a nice kitchen. The bathroom was nice as well, with a pretty tile floor and full bath with shower. Lovely wood floors and pleasing décor.

Conveniently located 2 blocks from the 2 & 3 subway lines, which are efficient and connect to anywhere in the city fairly easily. I was extra pleased with that aspect. Located on the 12th floor of a an apartment complex with a gated courtyard and a 24hr guard to make you feel extra safe in NYC. The area felt as safe as the rest of NYC at night. Usual amount of outside noise for NYC apartments and hotels. (I've stayed in places where the noise is a lot worse).

I used to live in NYC, so I had a good idea of what to expect and found the place and host exceeded my expectations! I would certainly stay here again.
