Stayed at Dorina's Studio Apt. with my wife during recent trip to New York.
The basement Apt. is the full length of Dorina's home and pictures provide an accurate view of the high finish (which easily provided more space than any equivalent hotel suite at a fraction of the price.
The Apt. was chosen to provide that neighbourhood experience while still providing easy access to NY City. The Apt. is approx. 15min walk from M Line Train Station with direct access to Manhattan in 30-45mins, depending on time of day, with easy access to transfers to further afield.
The area felt safe at any time of day and although we ate in Manhattan most evenings there is a good Italian and American Style Dinner within walking distance, that we had the pleasure of eating in.
Property provided a quiet and relaxing haven at end of busy day's sightseeing and minimal noise from above (hope this was reciprocated the other way!).
Dorina also provided a welcome pack and a bottle of wine to get us started on our Saturday evening arrival.
The kitchen was well stocked for our usual morning fresh coffee and shower was powerful again lending to wakening up experience as we planned our day of action!
I would certainly have no hesitation in staying at Dorina's on our next visit to New York and will even consider her larger Apt, if we come back with family.
Dorina was always available by text and quick response was appreciated. Please note recommendation of local taxi number was invaluable as very responsive and on time and taxi back to airport was $20 less than one used on arrival!
