We had an absolute ball staying at Elle's apartment!!! The apartment itself we found was clean, roomy and well thought out. The king size bed was superb. The location was perfect with a 24hr minimart, 10+ restaurants and a gem of a coffee house along the street as well as 2 very close subway stations to get you everywhere you need to go. street was always safe and not too busy at all. We are so happy we decided not to stay in a hotel which all seemed close to Times Sq where its crawling with people and traffic else we wouldn't have been able to unwind so well and take in a real sense of the NY lifestyle. A big thumbs up to Elle who left us feeling spoilt with her kindness, help and small touches in making the apartment a home away from home. Thanks Elle, Vanessa & Nathaniel Oct 2013
