Maria is a very nice host. Her place is perfect for a long stay, except the noise from the traffic . You have everything you need in the apartment.
The neighborhood is a safe one,supermarket is 3 min away, metro is 5min away,walking distance.
The only recomandation for visitors is to have ear plugs if you are not used to the noise.
Thank you Maria!

P.S. For all NYC visitors, I sugest to go first at one museum,there you have maps and discount coupons. You can purchase tickets cheaper online.
