Benny was a fantastic host. The apartment we stayed in was located in Washington Heights which is pretty convenient if you need to go anywhere on the A/C/1. Nearby you've got the Duane Reade for any pharmacy needs as well as a number of little restaurants if you're not feelign like doing the delivery thing or traveling. The building and apartment is key access, so you'll need to arrange to meet up with Benny ahead of time to get in. Accommodations are simple (in a good way) but cozy with a TV, smart lighting strips and overhead bulbs which was fun for the vibe, a candle, a little reading lamp and night stand by the bed. The internet was fast and reliable. In the kitchen, there's a fold out table and chairs we ended up not using. Its one of the older apartment buildings (if you're from Boston you know the kind, haha) so the water does take a little bit of time to warm up in the shower. Loved the plants as well. Now for the host; Benny was a really gracious host: we had multiple great conversations and he was available for any questions we had and has a good pulse on whats what in the city. Really enjoyed our thanksgiving week with Benny and will definitely be looking him up when we next visit NYC.
