I can barely even put into words how much we enjoyed Paula’s apartment.
1st, it is much larger than I expected with being an apartment in Manhattan. We had plenty of room to be comfortable. The bed was very comfortable, the kitchenette was nice, the bathroom was spacious and the apartment was very tastefully decorated. We felt very safe and secure.
The amenities provided were nice, such as a tv with Netflix, basic cooking supplies, iron, shampoo/conditioner/body wash.
The apartment was kept nice and cool with a large portable air conditioner. When we arrived the air conditioner was leaking. Paulas’s husband had a different one down to us within 3 minutes.
The location was fine for us. But, if you want to be in the heart of downtown, this is not it. Be prepared to take a 30-45 min metro ride every time you want to get downtown to the main areas of the tourist attractions. Paula’s place is very far uptown. The convenient part here is that there was a metro station right across the street from the apartment and the value to stay here is incredible.
Lastly, Paula provided us with a ton of great tips and suggestions before and throughout our stay. We will definitely stay again when we visit!
