It's hard to imagine a more perfect urban oasis: centrally located, beautifully appointed, spacious and comfortable, and home to a very charming cat. Rachel is a perfect host--patient (we arrived an hour later than anticipated due to traffic), thorough, gracious, and generous. True to the pictures, the apartment is comfortable and elegant, with interesting and tasteful decor and high-end appliances. We were concerned about the noise along Park Ave. South, but with the sound-proof windows in the bedroom--and the very comfortable bed--we slept like logs. There is wonderful restaurant immediately next door where we had breakfast, and many others nearby. While this isn't something we would count on happening again, we were able to park immediately in front of the building, where we left our car all weekend. Having Emily the cat there to greet us at the end of the day was a real treat. We hope the apartment will be available the next time we visit the city...it it truly the NYC apartment we wish we had!
