Staying at Alexandra’s apartment was an amazing experience. I was a little apprehensive about sleeping on the sofa but it was much more comfortable than many beds I have slept on and the sleeping area was secluded from the rest of the apartment and very quiet. The decor is unique and Alexandra’s flair for interior design is evident everywhere from the beautiful lighting to the interesting artworks and artifacts on display. The kitchen and bathroom are tastefully designed, maintained and a pleasure to use. The area is very safe and feels more residential and less chaotic than other parts of the city. The subway is just round the corner for easy access to midtown. There is a great organic supermarket nearby and lots of interesting eateries. Alexandra was a fantastic host; very helpful and easy to communicate with and offered lots of useful info. I would definitely love to stay here again as it actually felt like I was staying in a beautiful home full of character and the price was very reasonable. Thank you so much Alexandra for your hospitality. It was great to have met such a talented artist!
