Allison's place was great - I had a month-long visit to NY for work and the place was ideal.

Location: Nice (~5-7 min walk from a few subway options) and the best part, one block from Central park - it was great to be able to be so close for walking/exploring.
The place: High ceilings and plenty of space for one (or a couple). Kitchen was small but functional with full stove/oven (also a dishwasher, which I didn't really use but is a plus). Loft bedroom was comfortable. As the summer got hotter I noticed the heat more in the loft - but the apartment has AC so while the loft was warmer, the whole apartment stayed cool (there's also a fan upstairs). Lots of sun, but private (overlooking a courtyard) and really quiet.
Host: Allison was lovely - happy to give me space, but quick to help out (including getting an ironing board delivered). Check in/out very smooth.
I'd definitely stay again and would have no problems recommending for a weekend stay or a or longer visit like I did.
