Laura's place is in a fantastic location, easy walks to Inwood Hill Park one direction and The Cloisters another. We found some great dining, including Indian Road Cafe toward the northern tip of Manhattan Island, just 10 minute walk northeast, as well as Friend of a Farmer and a small bistro nearby.
The parking garage on Dyckman was very reasonable for 2 days' stay.
The apartment is spacious and charming with all you need to use in the kitchen. Once we figured out the AC units (with Laura's help - she was very responsive) we were very comfortable. It was very warm on the 5th floor, though, even in mid-April.
