I've been in New York several times before coming to Jane's apartment. I've never been so well hosted than here.
Jane's studio is very spacious, comfortable and quiet. It is very well decorated and anything bothered us during our stay. The bed is very comfortable and the shower is great.
The apartment is very close to Manhattan via subway (one change to 5th ave/Times Square) or Ferry to midtown, Brooklyn or downtown (a Must Go, even with cold weather). You will easily find restaurants, cafes, delis and stores in a walking distance. We would definitely stay here again in a new trip to NYC. We stayed for 8 nights and Sante welcome us with a lot of recommendations nearby and a very nice talk. We met him some times during our stay and also met Jane. Both were cool and available for any request. Sante even helped us with a cab to Manhattan in our last day.
If you are looking for privacy and practicality this is the right place.
