Sumitra’s place was the perfect option for my weekend trip to NYC. I shared the apartment with my mom, I stayed on the super comfy bed (Casper mattress is a huge plus) and my mom stayed on the pull out couch, which she found quite comfortable.
The layout of the apartment offered quite a bit of privacy even though there isn’t a door separating the two sleeping areas, my mom was up early and I stayed up later than her, but we really didn’t bother each other at all.
The entire apartment is very tastefully decorated and comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped for breakfast and the bathroom was nice and very clean - the water pressure in the shower is a thing of beauty.
The apartment is very conveniently located, a quick two blocks from the 1 train and a few more to the A, B, C & D trains. We drove into the city and found street parking a few blocks away easily on a Friday night.
There is a great coffee place across the street, and some good restaurant options in the neighborhood - we did sushi take out on Friday that was very good.
Sumitra is an accommodating and friendly host with some helpful suggestions about the neighborhood. I would absolutely stay here again on another trip into the city!
