Penny is a wonderful hostess. She is friendly, thoughtful, helpful with ideas of where to go and what to see. Her apartment is conveniently located, an easy walk to the E train on Lexington, and thus only a little over an hour by public transit from JFK. It is beautifully decorated, clean, and... I could go on and on.
The next time I am in New York I hope to be staying at Penny's Serene Oasis.
