Kristina's place is lovely, and Kristina herself is great too. The place is located in a very safe and convenient neighbourhood. It's within a block of just about everything you need, including a 24/7 Duane Reade and a Wholefoods open until 11pm. The subway is super close by, and it's very easy to get to most lines - including the 6, N/Q/R, E trains. You can get just about anywhere in the city within about 10-15 minutes, and coming home late is not a problem because the neighbourhood is very safe. It's a short walk to Madison, Park and 5th Avenues - so if you're a problem shopper like me, be prepared to be tempted! Kristina is absolutely lovely and easy to live with. She has great recommendations and is a really cool person in general. This was an easy 5-stars to give.
