If you're wanting a real New York experience during your time there, stay at Alicia's place. She has very interesting friends and everyone was very friendly. Her apartment is super cute and I love the location. It's right there on the river with a great view of the GW Bridge. I had to go to Lenox Hill Hospital during my stay and it took me no more than 30 minutes to get there, but usually only about 20 minutes.

Thanks, Alicia, for all the help finding my way around! I will definitely be staying at your place again!!
