To say my experience staying with Marlyn and her husband was great, is a understatement! It was absolutely AMAZING!! The pictures of the apartment do not compare to the ooohs and ahhhs we experienced as soon as we walked thru the door. The space is gorgeously beautiful! We were a family of 7 and Marlyn's apartment accommodated us perfectly! Communication and check-in was flawless! Parking was directly in front of the house and no matter the time we always had a space! Upon arrival, Marlyn's husband greeted us and showed us around our living quarters. It was VERY clean, well kept, and tastefully decorated...we were impressed. The apartment had anything and everything we needed...all was well stocked and far exceeded our expectations. Any toiletry items you may have forgotten, Marlyn had them! Plenty of fresh towels and washcloths, blankets, and pillows, nothing lacked...everything at our disposal. Marlyn and her husband was gracious enough to stock the apartment with food, snacks, and drinks prior to our arrival which was totally unexpected and certainly highly appreciated. Plenty of cookware, glassware, dishes, and silverware to accommodate all of your cooking needs. Fresh fruit and cookies greeted us at the dining room table which was absolutely the sweetest welcome gesture! I met Marlyn later that evening and she was such a joy to meet and informed us that no matter the time we could contact them should we need to, which was very reassuring. She even showed us a few ways on how to get to the subway, within walking distance, we took the MTA into Manhattan each day. We had NO issues, NO complaints at all during our stay...such a lovely and very accommodating couple! After staying in Marlyn's apartment, we questioned why would we ever stay in a hotel in NYC when we were right at HOME in her space!! Made perfect sense to us and certainly felt like our home away from home! I totally, 150% recommended Marlyn's apartment...one of THE BEST places I've ever stayed and will certainly stay there again and again! Many, many, many THANKS to Marlyn and her husband for being the perfect hosts and making our stay such a pleasurable experience! Top notch, top quality, the BEST of the best in my book! Look no further! Absolutely #1 on my list!!
