staying at michael's apartment was a fabulous expereince. i took the wrong subway and michael was so helpful and patient in getting me in the right direction. i really appreciated his help and he made me feel at home when i arrived; even though it was quite late after our arranged meeting time. he stocked the apartment with water and yummy snacks...bonus!! michael gave a lot of tips on things to see and i felt comfortable right away. the apartment is really cozy and very clean. it rained during our stay and we were happy to see that michael provided sturdy umbrellas. the apartment had everything we needed and michael is a caring and gregarious host. would definitely recommend and we will be back again. thanks michael!!
