Elizabeth's place was exactly as she described; it's very clean and she was very accommodating meeting us at the apartment our first night. It's convenient to museums, central park is only a few short blocks away and you can even rent Citibikes right outside her place for $12 per day. We had stayed in times square previous times and really wanted to experience the city as a local would and this place is that. Be prepared to walk/bike/subway to get most places as you are further north from all the hubbub, but this didn't bother us. Learn your subway stops as we did uber some but this can add up! She had plenty of recommendations on places to eat (Ricardo's for dinner was awesome!) and even had water, wine, beer and chocolates upon arrival! Also Red Rooster for breakfast can't be missed. Thank you Elizabeth!
