Raymond’s place is very spacious with plenty of towels and linens. When the smoke detector began beeping one night, I let him know first thing in the morning. He responded quickly and changed the battery that morning. Our biggest challenge was the two flights of steep narrow stairs. It was nice having a washer/dryer in the unit. I should have thought about that before packing so much into my suitcase. Perhaps the stairs wouldn’t have been an issue. The subway station with the express A and local C trains is a pleasant, short walk. This subway station also has an elevator. We had a wonderful time staying at Raymond’s. For our group of 5, it was perfect.
