Not only this place is a "fabulous retreat", but Noemie is also a fabulous host ! She was available to our requests and gave us a lot of useful informations to get started with our trip to NYC. Et aussi, elle parle français! :-) We had a late check-in time and she was very helpful with that. The title says is all : it's fabulous urban retreat. We were 6 adults and we had space to live and sleep (2 bedrooms), with all you need in the neighboorhood. A/C is working perfectly on hot days and there are washing machine + dryer you can use. Subway stations are 10 minutes away and it takes less than an hour to get anywhere in Mahattan.
