In my case I did a last-minute reservation, and I'm sure I will never find a better place to stay at (and trust me, I can be very fussy). Mike makes you feel you are part of his family and he will do anything to make of your stay a confortable one. He took me to know the neighborhood, stores, and showed me the way to my work. He will always be there whenever you need help, always showing respect for your space and privacy. The apartment was always clean and supplied with everything you need... you will feel spoiled most of the time :) It is definitely better than described or shown at the listing.
The apartment is walking distance from Montefiore Medical Center (which was of my convenience) and from the subways (easy to get to the rest of NYC). I stayed for a month and I was sharing the apartment with 2 guests with a different room. Quiet and safe vicinity with a friendly environment. You won't regret it... A+ !!! I am grateful, and Im now a fan.
