Beatrice was very flexible with arrival and departure arrangements. She always answered emails/texts very quickly. The apartment is about 10 minutes walk from Beverley Road subway stop and you can in Manhattan in less than an hour door to door. There are plenty of local shops and takeaways etc in the neighbourhood. The neighbourhood is quite quiet, with lots of families living there. It feels quite safe (especially when compared to some other NY neighbourhoods...).

The apartment itself is well furnished. There's no aircon, but there are fans and so on - so it's fine. (Anyway, you are here to see NYC, not sit at home!!) You can cook basic meals if you wish and there's lots of fridge/freezer space to keep your own food.

Beatrice is very friendly and I hope that she continues to be successful with her Airbnb adventure - she certainly deserves to be.

If (if? when!) I come back to NYC, I would definitely stay here again. It was exactly what I needed for my stay.
