Malene is a very attentive host, and I enjoyed staying at her place. It's on a relatively quiet (for NYC) residential street, but very close and convenient to all kinds of restaurants, stores and other neighborhood businesses. The A & C subway is only a few blocks from the apartment, so access to Manhattan is quite easy. The apartment has a well-stocked kitchen, plenty of towels, and a washer/dryer; it would have been quite comfortable for 3 or 4 people, although I was by myself. Malene checked in on me often (even though she was in Africa for part of my visit!), and had quick and helpful responses when I had questions.
