I was looking for a quiet and private place to stay in Upper West Manhattan (close to my brother who lives there) with my parents. Larah was very reliable and helpful from the first moment. She replied to my messages extremely fast; within 15 minutes we made the arrangements and I was assured of a nice, comfortable place to stay in NY. The apartment was new, clean, safe, quiet and cosy, with a fully equipped kitchen, beautiful bathroom and good beds. It was great to relax there after a busy day in the city. We very much liked the atmosphere of the neighborhood (Harlem) too, especially some places that Larah pointed out.
