My son and I had the best experience at Julia's place. The apartment is beautiful and the location is amazing! Even before we arrived, Julia was wonderful- providing excellent information in response to my questions. I appreciate the clear information and instructions she provides on the web site. I read carefully her detailed description of the space prior to booking, so I understood it would be a great fit for us. The bedroom was extremely spacious and well appointed with ample towels, a large table and chairs, two mirrors, lots of places to plug in our electronics and hair dryer, plenty of hangers and space for our personal items. In the bedroom, Julia provides a list of nearby recommended eateries and things to do- much appreciated! We knew from the listing description that the kitchen/dining area was not a shared space; we had all we needed with the bedroom being so large and well set up with table and chairs. The shared bathroom was always available to us when we needed as Julia and her roommates are conscious of guests. The guest's privacy is fully respected in Julia's home- I hardly saw anyone, and the rare occasion our paths crossed, all the residents of the home were delightful. My son and I were made to feel welcome and comfortable throughout our stay. I will definitely try to stay at Julia's again when visiting NYC- if it is available. Thank you for the wonderful experience, Julia!
