We had a great time in new york and mainly because of grace's apartment.
It was perfectly placed, near to the subway station(s), plenty of good restaurant and some great places for the breakfast. Grace gave us all that useful addresses of the neighborhood, her advices were good!!!
We did not see her too much in person, but she was very nice, kind and she stayed in touch with us almost every day by mail or text messages. She was available for us if we need help and it was appreciable.
Her flat is very nice, everything is clean and calm, so you can have a good night after a crazy visit day. Everything was close we thought, just one subway station for manhattan, like two for brooklyn, direct subway line for downtown… it was also pretty easy to find from Newark Airport for us who never came to NYC.
In resume it was a great place and a great host, if we come back to NYC we already know the place that we will choose!!!!
