Eric was a fantastic host, and was there to meet us when we arrived. He showed us all the nitty gritty details of the apartment and where we could find the Subway and restaurants near by. The apartment is just like the pictures and fairly decent for the price.

The sofa bed was pretty comfy, and we had no troubles coming and going from the building. Like most places in New York, you get a bit of noise at all hours; so if you're sensitive it might be a good idea to bring ear buds.

We traveled by Subway into Midtown every day and it felt like the apartment was on a great line, although the closest station doesn't go downtown at the moment. still pretty convenient.

Our first stop after settling in was dinner at El Paso's (having seen the reviews here) and it didn't disappoint!

Eric was a great communicator and I'm sure if we'd have had any troubles he would have helped out as much as possible.
