If you are looking for a place to stay in NYC, LOOK NO FURTHER! Our stay with Blanca and Teddy was just amazing. The apt was much larger than it appears in the pictures. It is spotlessly clean and well-kept. We arrived nearly three hours later then we expected - there was a blizzard so our plane was late. It was no problem with Blanca and Teddy, we tried to get them updated on our estimated arrival. They were very understanding, we felt comfortable and it was no problem at all showing up late. When we arrived, Teddy was there as Blanca didn't make it back home because of the blizzard, too. He showed us the apt and gave as a short overview over the subway map, nearest shops, etc. The moment we entered the apt we felt welcome and at home. During our stay, when we came back in the evening, it was really like coming home, just loved the apt. There's everything you need (towels, linen, kitchen tools, wifi, etc.) that you need to enjoy your stay. Teddy even drove as around the town one night to show us the beauty of Manhattan. When we left for the plane back home, he drove us to the next subway station for the E train we had to take. Amazing!!
A word about the neighbourhood: We felt absolutely safe and comfortable there. The neighbourhood is great, all kind of people, but we never met someone unfriendly. Going around the streets even at night when we came back home with the subway (btw: subway station only 5 minutes away, bus station you just have to step outside) was no problem and we never had to worry.
Would I choose this location again? ABSOLUTELY! Great apt, great neighbourhood and the most amazing hosts you can imagine. So we surely will come back.
A big thanks and hugs to Blanca and Teddy. You made our stay in this great city a not-forgettable experience. THANKS!
We recommend this apt to our friends, and some of them have already booked a stay with Blanca and Teddy ;)
