This was our (a family from Australia: two adults, three teens) first accommodation experience in New York City. Our communication with Mark (all online) was excellent: Mark was friendly, professional and responsive. His friend Matt (lovely guy) met us nearby and settled us in.
The apartment ticks lots of boxes: central, interesting location, close to everything (food, entertainment, subway, deli, laundry, the lot). Big, clean kitchen, great water pressure (fab showers!) and pleasantly warm (important being December). Lots of city action and noise were part of the fun for us, but if you’re a light sleeper who needs total dark and silence, this might not be the place for you.
The photos did give the impression that the second room was larger/longer. It’s a snug and comfortable space but only the youngest of our three tall teenagers was short enough to sleep there (the others slept in the lounge). Ideal for younger kids though.
All up, excellent experience. Thank you Mark!
