Having lived in Manhattan for 7 years, I knew what I wanted and where in choosing our location. Yulia's was that and more. Clean, cozy, quiet (for NY) as the apartment faces away from the street, attractive remodeled bathroom and a larger than expected bedroom. What a pleasure to return after a day's sightseeing to flop down on the couch or bed - Very relaxing.
The apartment is just off Broadway in the West 80's and thus a few steps away from cafes, restaurants, shops, groceries and of course the subway, buses and taxis. Also just a short walk to Central Park and Riverside Park.
From our first communication with Yulia, she was very responsive. From coordinating our arrival to allowing us to leave our bags in the apartment on departure day so we could go sightseeing a bit more, we knew she was only a text message away, if (but wasn't) needed.
Yulia's apartment complimented the great time we had in New York. It was our relaxation place at night and our kicking off place in the morning
