I can sum up our stay in two words: excellent experience!! First off, Wilfredo is a top of the line host!! He met us and not only did he have maps and recommendations for us (which is already top notch), he took time, was super friendly, and spoke a little French-- which was fun for us since we live in France!!! Also, if you have a problem, he's just downstairs, but stays out of your hair unless you need him. The apartment is perfect-- just the right space for traveling-- and clean!! The neighborhood is on the up and up and don't forget to ask Wilfredo about Houdini's just down the street-- yum!! Plus, you're 20-30m from union square-- totally convenient!! In all, as I said in the beginning, EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE!!!
