I have stayed in quite a few places in New York City and Carol's place is the nicest of all of them. The bed is large and very comfortable. The private attached bathroom is great. The water pressure in the shower is strong and the water gets hot fast and easy to keep at the right temperature. Very important. The location is near the 1 train and also the c train so traveling throughout the city which I did is quick and easy. I also enjoyed the neighborhood for places to dine. I particularly like the blue bottle cafe and Le Pain Quotiden. Carol is also extremely nice and helpful with directions and anything I needed. I enjoyed my stay immensely and hope to be able to stay again if not already booked.
