We had a super time staying at Cara's place. The location is excellent (disclaimer - as an ex-NYer, I knew that going in); Cara was very cool and easy-going. I don't know her well but I think she won't mind if I say that she is very NY! The bed is a pull-out sofa - not the most comfortable in the world, but comfortable enough. Otherwise, her place was great and we would not hesitate to book it again next time we visit.
