My wife and I spent 5 days recently at Orestes place and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The temperatures in New York were in the 90's the whole time, so the air condition suite was really appreciated. Orestes was a very helpful and accommodating host and helped us out with our daily touring/planning. The bedroom unit has all the amenities one would need, assuming you are there to see New York, and not simply stay in the bedroom. The location of this residence is so perfect, on a quite tree lined street, but yet a few minutes walk to the major subway lines, restaurants, convenience stores, and water front. I am a Landscape Architect and Oreste has done a wonderful job with his rear yard/garden oasis, and it was so nice to sit in the heavily landscape yard in the morning, and one would never know they were so close to Manhattan. We would certainly look at booking with Orestes next time we need accommodation in New York.
