Hudson's place is loaded with character and very clean. The kitchen is small, but who's cooking while visiting New York? The balcony was awesome and a sitting out there at night after a long day of exploring the city was a perfect way to end the day. The building is quiet and in a great location one block from Central Park. We were also only a block from two different subway stations, which took us everywhere we wanted to go, including Yankee Stadium and downtown. There are lots of great bakeries, restaurants, and cafes in the neighborhood, so finding delicious food was easy. Hudson even gave us some suggestions based on our tastes. He was very easy to communicate with and answered all of our questions promptly. We were able to take his parking spot on his way out, so parking our car for the weekend was simple, too. It's hard to imagine a better place and host. My husband and I are looking forward to our next trip and would gladly stay at Hudson's place again.
