I've just returned home to England from a four week holiday in Karene's apartment and am delighted to say that it was superb. Not only was it everything that Karene's photos and description presented but it had the added benefit of a newly completed rooftop terrace. The apartment offered everything I was looking for in the most fantastic location right in the heart of the happening West Village. Karene was an excellent host giving me lots of suggestions for places to eat and boutiques to shop in, several of which I went to. I've been to NY several times and have previously stayed in hotels. Having had such a fantastic experience at Karene's apartment, I'd have no hesitation in booking to stay with her again.
