Svetlana was simply a great and lovely host. She gave many useful advices and did everything she could to make us feel at home. To sum it up, she did much more then she had to do as an Air B'n'B host. I would totally recommend her to everybody who is considering to stay on beautiful Roosevelt Island.
The Island is also a good alternative to staying in the centre of Manhattan. It only takes you a couple of minutes with the subway to reach the heart of Manhattan, but it's absolutely quiet in comparison. We're glad the we found the place, it was amazing.
