Claire's place is exactly as advertised with a special added touch! We were in NYC for my niece's birthday and arrived to Claire's place to find a find a room of pink(my niece's favorite) balloons and tasty cupcakes and other treats. My niece was delighted. It was such a thoughtful touch and a great way to start our trip. The location is fantastic; in a quiet area, close to a variety of great restaurants, the subway, and a grocery store. It is safe, well kept, and very clean. Claire was very quick to respond to our questions and offered great suggestions for nearby places to eat and pick up supplies for meals in the apartment. She is very easy to communicate with. We had a wonderful time and are already planning on staying at Claire's place for our next visit up. Great location, reasonably priced, great space! Thank you Claire!
