Xiren's apartment allows to live like an authentic new yorker. It's located in a very animated/dinamic zone, fully of highly recommended restaurants, bars, shops. The house is very welcoming and friendly so you can feel it as your own. It's true that the heating installation is old (little bit noisy), but it works properly and the house wasn't cold.
In summary, we highly recommend this apartment to really feel and enjoy NY life.
Regarding Xiren, she's been the perfect host: attentive to us, quickly in the answer and so friendly.
It's been a pleasure, many thanks for everything Xiren!
