We spent a fantastic week in Giovanni's place. The apartment is lovely, comfortable, and airy, and really convenient for sightseeing and enjoying a good nightlife in Manhattan. It's also really close to many excellent restaurants, and every morning we looked forward to breakfast at a fabulous French bistro in the same block. We'd never had almond croissants as addictive as those... The area is very safe, we never felt uneasy walking back home in the early morning hours. To top it all off, Giovanni and Joseph were excellent hosts - they took extra pains to make us feel welcome and at home, and we had lots of useful and interesting chats about New York, and life in general. We'll happily go back to their place if another trip to the Big Apple is on the cards. Book now without hesitation, you'll love it there!
