Karen is incredible! She's very accommodating and very quick to respond with any questions. She's also flexible with check-in and check-out time, (of course she should be informed beforehand) which was extremely helpful. The place was very spaceous, clean and had all of the necessities for a few nights stay or more. And the bed! OMG. So comfy! My sister and I slept like babies!
The neighborhood outside had a lot of life within walking distances. However, quiet when you're inside the aprtment. It's a walking distance to the metro. This is definitely the perfect place to stay when visiting NYC. So glad Karen's listing was still open on my travel dates, and we're staying with her again next week!
