Vanessa's place was adorable! Such a great location on a quiet tree-lined street, even though right near the gritty chaotic Broadway. But such are the contrasts that make New York! The apartment is really close to the subway and some cute breakfast places. A few things were missing when we arrived -- soap, sponges, etc -- but Vanessa responded immediately when we asked. The door was really easy to open and close with the August app, and we felt very safe and secure. I wish we could have stayed longer!
