We loved staying in Amanda's cute little apartment. The room is small, but provides everything you need and has a comfortable bed. And as you have the most exciting city ever around you and spend most of your time outside anyways, Amanda's place is just perfect for coming home. She is such a friendly and open minded person, always trying to keep her guests happy. The neighborhood in the east village is way more affordable and relaxed than the super busy and touristy midtown. Metro stations and bus stops are located in walking distance. We would totally recommend staying with Amanda!
