We had a great time staying in Xiren's apartment. The was place was lovely - homely, with great decor and a very comfy bed! It had everything we needed (incl speakers) and was in a really nice area of town with lots of good bars/cafés/restaurants (and about10/15 walk to the subway). Xiren was extremely helpful, replying quickly and being very accommodating on our check out time. Overall we'd definitely recommend this place if you're visiting NYC!
