I had a great time at Lou’s apartment. Really cozy - room is a lot bigger than I had imagined. Towels and toiletries are provided and ear plugs too for those who find it difficult to sleep around noise.
Lou keeps her home tidy and smelling good. The bed is so comfortable and she makes such a great effort to make you feel at ease!
If you love Caribbean food and culture, her place is situated in a great place. I had a Caribbean breakfast at Soldiers Caribbean buffet on most days.
Lou is happy to give you space, so if you are someone who requires privacy, this is a great accommodation choice especially for the price!
I will say, if you do plan to travel to Manhattan frequently, it is a little far out. 40-45 mins on the subway or a $30-35 Uber ride. I had no issue making the ride as Lou is the perfect host and her place is like being home away from home.
