We had a great time at the loft in Spanish Harlem, despite being there for Hurricane Sandy! Four of us were very comfortable in the four bedrooms and had plenty of space to ourselves.

We had to stay indoors for a couple of evenings during the worst of the weather but that was no hardship as we'd stocked up on goodies from the supermarket that is literally 30 seconds away.

Robin was a great host - checking back every now and then that we hadn't blown away - and providing a folder with loads of good stuff to do.

The location is great, about a $20 cab ride from Times Square, or a 5/10 minute walk to the subway or bus stop. You're also only 10 blocks away from Central Park. On one of the days we walked from the apartment in to Manhattan (as the subways/buses weren't running) which was a fairly long walk but lots of good sights to see on the way.

We went to Ellen's Stardust Diner on 51st and Broadway quite a few times and had great fun with the singing waitstaff, the food was great too.

Would happily come back to this apartment next time I'm in New York and I couldn't recommend it highly enough!
