I stayed in Alex's apartment for 8 nights in the week between April and May 2014. The place is exactly like portrayed in the pictures and in her description, perfectly clean, warm and quiet. The location is ideal for visiting Manhattan, the red and blue/orange subway lines and a bus that brings you to the other side of Central Park are 5-7 minutes away: you can get anywhere in the heart of Manhattan in 20-25 minutes, at most. The possibility of being in the middle of Central Park in 5 minutes and enjoying a walk in the sun is priceless too.
But what really stands out about Alex and her place is that, from the moment you step in, you will feel her CARE for...everything: all the little details will make you feel like a respected host and will help you feel like respecting her hospitality.
If anybody will ever ask me for an advice of where to stay in NY, I will tell them to make sure to check if Alex's place is available!
