We stayed in Sylvia's apartment for 2 weeks in December 2017. We loved the apartment. The apartment is cozy, and doesn't have a lounge room, but it does have a full sized kitchen, with a small dining table and two chairs, giving you somewhere to sit apart from the bedroom. Sylvia was excellent with communicating with us prior to our arrival and she was there to greet us when we arrived. She walked us around the apartment and made us feel welcome. The apartment was beautifully presented, the kitchen was stocked with most utensils needed for everyday cooking. The bathroom is quite small, but fully functional. There were lots of brochures and helpful information available to help with your holiday planning. The apartment is perfectly located between two subway stations, with the closest being approx 5 mins walk. Downtown Manhattan is only a 15 minute train ride way. Steinway Street and Broadway are an easy walk away with a great range of shops, restaurants, pharmacy, cafes etc. The area is clean and very safe. We loved our holiday and would highly recommend Sylvia's apartment for anyone wishing to say in New York. The location is perfect.
