We stayed at Agnes' place for a weekend getaway trip to NY. This was our first time traveling there alone, but Agnes made us feel very safe. We were given clear instructions on how to get around the city, and even when we forgot the directions she never hesitated to provide them again! She definitely helped us to master, what we feel, was a complicated subway system. She gave us a platform to really explore New York (not just Times Square). We really appreciated how clean the room was, and how quick she was to respond to our questions and concerns. The area is safe, and the building has an intriguing history, that Agnes won't hesitate to tell you about (she LOVES her city!). We recommend you stay with Agnes. She will make sure you have a good time, without imposing on your privacy.
