Wonderful place for a budget holiday in Manhattan! Grocery story next door, lots of other shops very close on Broadway. It took only 15 minutes by subway to visit my aunt on the Upper West Side. Also close to the 168 St. subway station, which has an elevator and, I think, access to express trains to downtown.

Best of all, Rosario's apartment is only a short walk from stunning parks along the Hudson and East Rivers. Only a few subway stops from Inwood Park, a hilly forest at the northern tip of Manhattan, and Fort Tryon Park, another hilly forest with stunning views up and down the Hudson River.

The room was very quiet, which was very important to me. Rosario is friendly and enthusiastic, and I felt very comfortable staying in her place. It was tidy, spacious, and the bed was more comfortable than my own at home. It's a queen size. Rosario is an artist, and this shows in her charming decoration of the apartment.

Experience New York as a local. Stay at Rosario's!
