Richelle was a great hostess and is a wonderful, intensely creative person. Her breakfasts are works of art and are presented with love. Richelle is delighted when she delights you. The apartment was immaculate and her attention to detail made the small apartment accommodate all comforts necessary with a little shifting around that she has well planned. The location is the best: beautiful old building on upper west side. I walked to museums and Lincoln Center, feeling perfectly safe alone on the street late in the evening. Though the futon may not be suitable for a bigger person, I slept very comfortably. Richelle and I became fast friends and though the quarters were close, it was like sharing them with my own family. A great experience I will always remember. Thanks Richelle!
