Claudia's apartment is very nice: spacious, well equipped, comfortable and including a garden as a plus.
Location is perfect, in a lively area with all commodities around (supermarket --> Trader Joe, banks, pharmacy, restaurants, bars...)
The metro connects to south of Manhattan in 5 minutes.
We did not meet Claudia but exchanged on a regular basis by e-mail. She allowed us to keep the flat until evening the last day, useful for a late evening flight back to Europe ! :)
