Susie is a great host and so sweet. My partner and I were in town for a few days and really loved our stay at Susie’s place. Yes, there are many flights of stairs! But as soon as we got in, exhausted, after a long day of travel, we were met with the biggest smile and enthusiasm from Susie. What a great start to our vacation! This spot is just what you need if you plan on spending most of your time out and about in NYC — if you just needing a place to sleep, clean up, yet still feel like you’re connected to “the city” life.
As a daughter of immigrant parents from East Asia, I felt right at home. I didn’t get to meet Susie’s parents, but the smell of home cooked food was such a delight. Before you get there, remind yourself or get up to speed about the history of the Lower East Side and why it’s an important part of the city’s diverse history. It helped me understand why Susie’s home and her folks are a part of keeping NYC great.
Thanks for opening up your home to us, Susie! For expanding our experience of NYC and for being such an accommodating hostess.
