Upon our arrival to the apartment it was very late (1AM) as our flight was delayed - we kept in touch with Alexis and a key card was left with the doorman of the property next door, we were a little anxious about getting into the room and settling in as all we had to go by was the info from the original booking as our host was not there to greet us on arrival (likely due to the late arrival).
We were more than impressed with the room; spacious, modern and airy. Facilities including Netflix and universal light and blind controls were really convenient. Alexis even left us shampoo and shower gel which was lovely of her.
The only issue we encountered however was security, there is no lock on your room door, at first we considered this a problem; however after realising we were directly in the middle of the house hold and our room was very secluded with a private lift we felt okay. We also got to know the property and area better this really didn't remain an issue/worry we felt really safe.
The view of the leafy Manhattan street was also really impressive and the location was great; Just down from the Met Museum and 4 blocks from a subway station. I would definitely recommend staying with Alexis and we would definitely stay again!
P.S. We met Rex the dog in the hallway; such a lovely dog!
Thanks!
