I stayed for a night just this past Monday! It was a great stay with a lovely host!
Charisse has a beautiful apartment very close to the metro, about a 3 minute walk! She was very accommodating about check in- I was able to leave my bag prior to check in which really helped.
The apartment is very clean and bright, would definitely recommend saying here. The neighbourhood is full of character and a great alternative to staying in overpriced Manhattan.
