I recently stayed with Agnes during my visit to NYC. I must say Agnes is awesome! She was an awesome hostess, makes great coffee and has the best continental breakfast. :) She worked extremely hard to ensure my comfort. I arrived on Sunday and upon arrival, there were some challenges with the air conditioning. It wasn't repaired until Wednesday, which is why I rated my stay at 4 stars.

Regardless of this, I would stay with Agnes again. She is extremely personable, you have so much privacy, she respects your space, she engages you in interesting conversation, her place is so convenient to the train, supermarket, gym, etc. She knows her jazz and shared some really nice music with me. I would highly recommend staying with Agnes.
