We really enjoyed staying at Vadim's place and it was one of our most favorite place to stay ! The apartment is really well furnished, clean and equipped with all amenities which allowed us to enjoy spending time indoors as well as outdoor sightseeing. The location is great as it is within walking distant with the metro and NYC ferry which allowed us to many options on transportation but we especially enjoyed the ferry! The neigborhood is also charming with variety of restaurants, bars and supermarket. Vadim is a really caring host as he prepared the food for us during our stay and the instruction is clear. We would definitely come back to stay here if to visit new York again!
