Patty's apartment was a great place for me and my two friends to spend a week touring the city. It is conveniently located near several subway stations that made going uptown or downtown very easy. You can't beat all of the cheap food nearby in Chinatown and Little Italy. The apartment is pretty old but is kept very clean (and has an awesome view out the window). Patty was super generous to set up an air mattress for us in addition to the couch (which doubles as a bed) and the bed in the loft. We were all very comfortable in the room, even though it seemed we were hardly there! It was always the perfect temperature. Of course, this is in Chinatown, which isn't the most elegant part of the city, but this really was perfect for what I needed in an apartment. Hardly had any contact with Patty, but she was always available for when I needed her. Thanks, Patty for an awesome stay!
