We (me, my mom, and teen age daughter) stayed from 12/19 thru 12/27. We had a wonderful time since we had never been to NYC for the holidays! Mario was so helpful! He always responded to my emails/concerns since we had been watching whether there would be another COVID shutdown. The apartment was just what we needed. Very clean and convenient to food and subway and we felt very safe. Instructions to get into apartment were very easy. We did take some Ubers also. Mario gave us a list if restaurants, bakeries, and coffee shops. We went to Le Moulin à Café which is literally around the corner every morning for croissants and coffee except one day because they were closed for Christmas. Excellent! My mom is French and she even found a jam she cannot find here in the states! We walked to Morton Williams Supermarket just a few blocks away from the apartment and there was a Starbucks close by also. If we have a chance to come back to NYC we would definitely see if Mario’s apartment is available!
