A peaceful respite from the hustle and bustle.
Juan was a fantastic host. He greeted us upon arrival and walked us around to point out a few stores, restaurants, and metro stations. The apartment was as described and I believe a few furniture items have been added since the picture (dining table and chairs). The street is quiet and the apartment was nicely cooled for us to escape from the heat wave the week we were there. About 5-8 minutes to walk to nearby metro stations. The ride is about 15-20 minutes to Times Square, for reference. We were definitely happy to have a secure, dedicated space to park our vehicle. We didn't use it at all during our stay, though - walked and rode the metro.
We are a married couple with twin 9 year olds. (I didn't mind having a single bed all to myself for a few nights.) ;-) I appreciated the separate bedrooms. Television and wifi worked well. It was nice to have access to a full kitchen, including full size fridge. We like to have options and not have to eat out for everything.
I would definitely recommend Juan and his apartment for your stay in New York!
