I found Viktoriya's place as a lifesaver since my last host in NY cancelled my reservation three days before my arrival, and it turned out to be the highlight of my whole trip. Viktoriya and William were the kind of hosts who really made you feel at home. The room was exactly as the photo showed (if not better), and beautifully decorated. There were even beverages in a mini fridge and candies provided (I might have too many of them!). It was also interesting experience to use the vintage elevator in their apartment building. Highly recommended place for a stay in New York!
