I had a great time at Karen's place.
The room was nice with a comfortable double bed, AC, closet, dresser, and a work designated area. Also is possible to use the kitchen in case you want to prepare some food. The breakfast included different types of cereal and a delicious coffee.
The place is located in a safe neighborhood, two blocks from an MTA station. It's close to nice cafes, super market, thrift stores, delis and restaurants. Karen and Marc are really great hosts, they always helped me when I needed suggestions about transportation, places to go, etc.
I felt at home since the first moment, when I arrived I had a nice welcome basket with snacks and beberages. During my stay I was working remotely and the wifi worked wonderfully.
They have a cute tiny dog (who I felt in love with) and three beautiful cats.
Definitely looking forward to book with them in my next visit to NYC.
