Staying in Susan's apartment is like being the guest of one of your best girlfriends -- if your friend lives in one of NYC's most desirable locations, is super classy, has excellent taste, and does everything imaginable to make sure your stay is perfect (including stocking the fridge with all the breakfast fixings you could possibly want)! First, the apartment itself is truly beautiful -- high ceilings, great light, sparkling clean, and full of special touches, from paintings to pillows. As Susan notes in the description, she has upgraded the living room couch (now a sleek navy velvety modern number) and added a lovely arm chair too. The mattress is high-quality and super comfy, and the linens are deluxe. Susan left earplugs on the nightstand, but the place was so quiet I didn't need them. The kitchen and bathroom are spotless, new, and have everything you need. But what made my stay most enjoyable was the feeling of sanctuary in the space -- you truly feel you're in someone's home, that she cares about the place, and that you're lucky to be there. Also, there are so many thoughtful touches -- from the large drawers Susan clears out, to the new bath soap, to the walk-in closet and tasteful lighting. And Susan was a joy to communicate with, which made the logistics as easy as could be. I wouldn't hesitate to stay at Susan's apartment again, and have already recommended it to friends and family for when they visit New York.
