We (a group of 5) stayed in Mike's apartment for 5 nights. I can only recommend staying at his place as it is the perfect place for enjoying New York City. The location is great as it is only a 10 minute walk to the subway station, to the waterfront and to a cool food market. So you are in a walking distance to many convenient places. The apartment is not huge, but it was totally fine for 5 nights. A coffee maker, toaster, one heating place and a fridge are provided, so small meals are possible. The place was very clean. Communicating with Mike was so easy as he responded quickly and his answers were always helpful. Thanks for everything, Mike!
