Though we didn't have the chance to meet Lara in the flesh, she's a remarkable host. Communication was easy and friendly. The flat is very nice, very charming. We felt immediatly in New York. The decoration is arty but warm, not those cold places without a soul like we often found via AirBnb. The place is clean and well furnished. Be aware though, it's an old building so the street can be noisy, even at night. But hey! it's New York! Thank you Lara. Have a good one.
