Location Location Location - Central Park is right there, subway around the corner one way, Joe's coffee around the corner the other way, Gristedes, too. Wine bar across from the apartment, quiet quiet street, totally clean apartment, well equipped as far as furniture, kitchen, bathrooms, etc. but not overstuffed, so there is plenty of room for your things as well. Dirk is extremely quick to offer a tip, communication very fast, he's a terrific host. I am from NYC originally but this is not 'my' neighborhood so it was a real treat to get to know the Upper West Side. My kids, husband and friends & family all loved the apartment, too. If you're traveling for a while as we were, the washer & dryer are a huge assist. You cannot go wrong with this place, it checks all the boxes. Enjoy!
