Staying at Patricia’s place felt like a good friend had lent you the keys to her beautiful apartment so you could enjoy a fun weekend in New York. The apartment is attractive, warm, comfortable, and has great natural light. It’s beautifully furnished and carefully designed to use the space well. I appreciated having a closet with lots of hangers and drawers! The kitchen, though tiny as is common in many NY apartments, is well equipped and the dining table spacious and comfortable. The location is fantastic-2 blocks from 2 different subway lines, and walking distance to Central Park and many museums. There are many restaurants and any shop you might need, all within easy walking distance. It’s also unbelievably quiet being located on a residential street, on the second floor in the back of the building, away from the street, but overlooking a garden. Patricia was gracious, responsive, and very helpful as we planned our trip and settled in.
