Svetlana was an impeccable host! She was very open and easy to communicate, both on the professional/logistical level, and on a personal level. I started off my stay with Svetlana with about a 90 minute conversation where we talked about the city, best ways to get around, recommendations on where to spend my time, and just about life in general!
Svetlana was completely accommodating for any requests I had and was willing to help with anything I needed, while also keeping a good distance so I could feel like I wasn't being watched. It is just a room in her home, so I was concerned about that, but I didn't get that vibe at all.
I will certainly contact her again on my next trip to NYC if it's just myself or myself and my wife. Any more, and you'll need to find another place, as it is just a room.
Thank you Svetlana for giving my trip to New York and warm and welcoming touch!
