Christine has a very warm, welcoming personality and is easy to get along with. I travelled alone and stayed at her place for 5 nights and felt at home whenever I returned from a long day of sight seeing in the city!
As is mentioned the apartment is close to public transport, Central Park & a variety of restaurants within walking distance which cater for every budget.
For those that enjoy cycling there is a citi bike rental station just across the street.
I enjoyed my stay at Christine and would definitely return if I return to New York!
