Our stay at the apartment was very comfortable and clean. I can tell that Christian went out of his way to make our stay enjoyable. We had fresh orange juice and donuts waiting for us. The price was right even if it is 1 hour from downtown. I enjoyed getting on the bus which stops at the apartment and getting to know the subway system. We came home at 10:30 and the transportation was still running. We never saw Christian and had total privacy although we did receive e-mails asking if all was still good. We had wonderful pizza and chinese food within a few blocks. Do not miss Sal and Dom's bakery across the street. Wow! Just remember this is an older home but well cared for.
