Although I didn't get to meet Sarah in person due a super early check-in arrangement, I thoroughly appreciated her being super accommodating and responsive. Shout out to her lovely roommate, Anna, for letting us into the apartment building when Sarah was unable to. Don't let the location deter you from staying here - it was so easy to get to the subway (less than 10 min walk for us) and really close to Central Park. I will definitely stay here again the next time I visit NYC :)
