Monifa and Saint were there to greet us warmly despite the late hour and explained where everything was and how to access the wifi and TV. The apartment has its own separate entrance so it is great for coming and going. The beds and the rest of the apartment were extremely comfortable and we were very snug and warm despite the chill New York weather outside. We had everything we could need in the kitchen (although we mostly ate out) and in the bathroom. The subway was literally 3 or 4 minutes round the corner and meant we could get around easily. There was a friendly little cafe to have breakfast/brunch just at the end of the road, although there were also some supplies in the kitchen, so we were able to have a go at waffle-making!
Thank you Monifa and Saint.
