This place is excellent value for money, not only do you get a beautiful room with quality, fresh, clean linens but there are also a number of other excellent facilities at your disposal. The roof terrace is great to start off your day or to unwind in the evening, as is the gym that is located in the basement near to the in-house laundry room.
Within the building are dedicated workspaces for those who need to get work done, these rooms are located on two floors of the apartment block and are very tastefully decorated. They have sofas, desks and chairs, and power points for laptops. These spaces are generally very quiet and also offer a nice place to chill.
The apartment is a short walk from the 2 and 5 trains and buses stop really close by. I would recommend guests buy an MTA ticket for cheap travel on trains and buses all over New York. I went for several walks around the neighbourhood, with lots of different things to be found in either direction, the locals are friendly and I found the neighbourhood to be safe.
Everywhere in the apartment is immaculate, from the foyer right the way up. The apartments and individual rooms are kept to a very high standard and the hosts work really hard to see that these standards are maintained.
Viviane and her co-host, Brent are super-responsive, answering questions quickly and offering help and advice when needed. They go to great lengths to make sure your stay is enjoyable and also to respect your privacy.
I really enjoyed my stay and would definitely book again.
