There is no better option for an extended stay in NYC than to stay with Blanca and Teddy. I arrived on my own to a very warm welcome by Teddy. He instantly made me feel at home, with very thoughtful tips about the city, and an informational tour of the apartment. Everyone in the building is so kind, it is like you are part of the family. The rental was bigger than expected, and beautifully clean. It had everything you need for a cozy and comfortable stay, and is only three blocks away from a super convenient subway line. Teddy and Blanca checked in with me regularly via text to make sure I was comfortable and had all that I needed, and new furnishings for the apartment showed up regularly (such a a teapot after they learned I love tea). My colleague joined me for the second half of my stay, and the space was definitely big enough for both of us. She felt just as comfortable and safe as I did. We had a few great chats with Blanca and Teddy in person as well. NYC is busy, but if there was time we would have loved to spend even more time with them. They even brought us a Poinsettia one day, and decorated the entrance to the building beautifully for the holidays. We look forward to staying with them again, and would recommend this spot to anyone.
