This review is as much about Monica as her apartment. Monica is one of the most attentive and gracious hostess I have ever met. She met me at her apartment, provided a detailed notebook about the apartment and surrounding area, including excellent resturant suggestions. In addition, Monica checked in with me on several occasions, as I rented her apartment for 2 full weeks, while attending classes at the Art Student's League of New York. Monica wanted to make sure everything was prefect for me, which it was, and she went above and beyond providing extra amenities because of the length of my stay.
Monica's apartment was ideally suited for me needs. It is an easy 10 block walk from the apartment to Columbus Circle and Central Park, and within 7 blocks of the school I attended. Located at the top of Hell's Kitchen, there are many excellent restaurants in the neighborhood within easy walking distance. Additionally, there are plenty of food and wine markets in the neighborhood, making it easy to stay in after a long day in the classroom. The apartment was very clean, very comfortable and exactly as pictured on the Airbnb Platform. Moreover, as a solo traveler, I felt extremely safe in the Monica's building. I would highly recommend Monica's apartment for business travelers, because it is so easy to get anywhere in Manhattan from her apartment. I would also recommend the apartment to couples looking for a fun place to stay for a weekend in the city. I have no doubt I will rent Monica's apartment again, should the opportunity arise.
