Jamie was an outstanding host. She was thoughtful, friendly, and kind. Before we arrived she asked what we wanted in the kitchen so it would be there when we arrived. She didn't mind that we arrived late in the evening - she was there to greet us and show us the place and how everything worked. We enjoyed meeting and getting to know Jamie. And her loft is wonderful. We've stayed in plenty of 5-star hotels, including some in NYC, and Jamie's apartment is the among the most comfortable and luxurious places we've ever vacationed. It is clean, stylish, filled with interesting art pieces and very very quiet (a real bonus in the city). It's well located, across from the Natural History Museum, a 3 minute walk to Central Park, close to shopping, dining and subways. We wanted to be on the UWS and Jamie's place was perfect for us.
