Let me begin by saying this place is nothing less than magnificent!! My sister and I traveled to NYC for what was my second and her first time visit.
Upon our late night arrival (flexible with check in, she's awesome!) Mia was kind enough to not just give us the code to let ourselves in but met us downstairs. She warmly welcomed us and showed us around the beautiful apartment. One look inside this place and you won't want to leave. Beautifully decorated/furnished and incredibly clean. Just immaculate. She informed us with great suggestions to local stores and restaurants we later tried out. So glad we did. I was also pleasantly surprised to see how well stocked the kitchen was with utensils, we took advantage of this and hit the grocery store. She also provides many things that are easily forgotten on any trip, from dry shampoo to contacts lens case, she had it! Be sure to take advantage of the bubbles and draw yourself a bath in the gorgeous claw bath tub after a long day of long subway rides. Music or book buff? Take a look at the amazing selections of books and records you'd needs months (maybe even years) to get through. The beds, OMG. the beds are heaven on earth. For the first time in my life I was saddened at the thought to go back to my own familiar bed. As far as transportation goes the train you'll need to get into Manhattan was a convenient 7 minute walk, grab yourself a snack or drink at the corner bodega thats just a few steps from the front door before your train. She made sure to check in on us via message now and then to make sure we were doing okay, she was always available and always very helpful. Once our departure day arrived we asked if there was any chance we could leave our bags behind for a while we hit the city one last time before our journey back home, she kindly accepted our request. This family is simply amazing, we extend our utmost gratitude for everything provided. I hope we get the opportunity to stay with you again and highly recommend to anyone looking for the best.
