Krysta was very welcoming and friendly- a great host. She made sure I had everything I needed, including an umbrella on a rainy day, which saved me from getting soaked. The apartment and room were very clean, and nicely designed including some lovely tile work and dark wood. There is a no shoes policy past the hallway, which I really appreciate. The room was comfortable and spacious. The neighborhood has lots of options for restaurants and coffee, and is convenient to the subway. Krysta has provided in the room a guide to her favorite spots and also some literature about getting around the city- subway maps, etc.
