Martine and her son Adrien were fantastic hosts. Not only were they super warm and welcoming but they also made sure to always check in whether everything was ok and I had everything they needed; at the same time they weren't too overbearing and very much respected privacy.
The room was fantastic and exactly as pictured. Very cosy and spacious. Everything one could possibly need during the stay was provided.
The location was also very convenient with only 10 minutes walk from the subway station and a direct lane to central Manhattan. I commuted to work in downtown Manhattan every day and had no problems whatsoever. The subway runs all night aswell so getting back home was never a problem.
I had a fantastic stay and can only recommend staying with Martine. If I come back to New York (which I hope I will), I would most definitely stay here again! :)
