We spent 8 nights in July at Katya's place.
The room was bigger than it looks on the pictures and definitely big enough for two people. The bed was comfortable. Overall the room was really clean, AC was working great which was a blessing with the humid heat of NYC. Everything you would need like a table or clothing rack was included. The bathroom was also absolutely satisfying. We were also allowed to use the kitchen as long as we cleaned up after ourselves which turned out to be super convenient.
Katya was a lovely host. She helped us whenever she could and gave us tips on what to do and how to get around the city. We had our privacy but when we needed her she was there. The whole atmosphere was comfortable and safe. We also got two pairs of keys which can be quiet useful depending on what you're planning to do if you travel as a pair.
The apartment is a 3 minute walk to the next subway station from where you can get around the city quite easily. A supermarket and a drug store are also really close. The park next to the subway was lovely and a good possibility for a chilled evening. A movie theatre is one subway stop away.
We enjoyed our stay, coming back to the apartment felt like coming home (the most home you'll get in a foreign country) and we would definitely stay there again.
