Thank you Kurt. You didn't just open your doors late on Christmas Eve to a family of unseasoned travellers ...you shared with us a most special view of New York heritage and culture, past and present. Your beautiful building was very stately yet comfortable. The streetscape is charming and the neighbourhood very safe with convenient access to shops and transport. Thank you for your kindness and hospitality. We will be recommending your accomodation to all our friends, and will return again ourselves for sure.
