Svetlana’s place was absolutely perfect for a trip to NYC! Roosevelt Island is like a small little haven in the midst of city chaos. It’s about a 15-20 min ride on the F train to get to downtown Manhattan or a tram ride (super fun!). Once you get off at Roosevelt Island, the noise of the city complete calms and you walk into a very family friendly community. Svetlana’s apartment was sparkling clean. She left so many small little touches, like chocolate on the pillowcases, that were very thoughtful. She immediately gave us local tips on the subway and on tourist attractions, very helpful! I cannot recommend Svetlana’s place enough, it was wonderful! If you are ever in NYC, this is an absolutely WONDERFUL place to stay!
