Lorelei and Alex's house was perfect! I had to be in Manhattan for a few work meetings, but wanted a quieter place to start and end my day. The neighbourhood is quiet (for a city) and mostly residential, but still convenient with lots of cafes, restaurants, and shops. I felt very safe here as a solo female traveller, and transit to and from Manhattan, even super late at night, was no issue.
The room itself (as well as the whole home) is immaculate and has been beautifully renovated and redone. It was such a luxury to have such a large room with space to lounge and private bathroom to myself.
Lorelei and Alex had lots of thoughtful suggestions on where to go in the neighbourhood and were gracious hosts. I would definitely stay here again the next time I need to go to New York!
