Andre was an excellent host, he was thoughtful and considerate to the needs of his clients. He checked in with us during the stay asking if there was anything we needed, which made us feel very welcome. The apartment was a great base for a holiday and the pictures on the site did not really do it justice. It was clean and well equipped with a good range of kitchen utensils. The lounge had comfortable sofas one of which converted into a good sized bed, which my son slept on. I really liked the TV being projected onto the wall, which gave a huge picture with an excellent sound system. The apartment felt safe with good outside lighting if coming home when it was dark. We appreciated being able to travel around New York with easy to reach metro stations close to the apartment. Most evenings we ate out at the local cafes, restaurants and pubs, which were busy, friendly and had a great atmosphere.
