Hugo, who I didn't get the pleasure of meeting while I was in NYC, had explained to me that they were renovating his place but assured me that everything was working. So I decided to stay at his place. He didn't tell me that a couple of the walls to the bathroom weren't finished so people could see into the bathroom if you happen to be using any part of it. Yes I knew his place was under construction but he didn't give me a heads up about the walls. That was the only thing I didn't really like about the apartment itself. I liked though that he made up his own guide to his neighborhood. His mom on the other hand is a very sweet woman, she tried to make sure that her other son didn't stop by while I happen to be in the shower. I wanted to know a place to get flowers to give flowers to Cate Blanchett due to the fact that I was just in NYC just to see her play called The Present at the Barrymore Theatre from the front row. If you are reading this before March 20th, you should definitely watch it. Cate is a sweet person and loved the flowers btw! Thank you for helping again with the flowers! My check in was a bit interesting. I told Hugo I was landing early in the morning like 6am. I asked him since the check in wasn't until after 4pm, I asked him if I could possibly drop off my stuff sometime before that and he was fine with that. But he was very adamant his after 4pm check in rule, which is fine. I knew that before I decided on taking his place. He never told me if his other guest left early I could possibly check in early. None of that was ever communicated to me. Also check out time is 12pm so I decided I didn't want to bother him before then. Being that I am from California where it was 50F for a low during the winter, I wasn't used to being in 23F temperature, so I thought I could try to pass the time and stay warm by catching a movie, which I caught LALA LAND (2+hr film) after 11am. I thought it would give him time just in case he had to do something right after his last guest checked out. I got out of the movie after 1pm. I recieved what I perceived as a rude message that I should communicate better with his host because the place was actually available right after I went in to see the movie. I can understand him, but there is also a better way to communicate with a paying guest. I just thought not to bother him before his other guest had checked out because he was already very adamant about his 4pm check in time. But I swallowed my lunch as quickly as possible because the...
