I had a wonderful time staying at Pika’s place. Pika was out of the country, instead Topi gave me a warm and thoughtful welcome (I felt home straight away) The room had everything I needed and more (like a mini fridge for instance, which was very useful). The room was clean, had lots of character and atmosphere and was very peaceful and quiet, with a beautiful view. Roosevelt Island is a hidden gem, a small island sandwiched between Manhattan and Queens, with lots of great connections to the main land. Supermarket close by, also lots of nice take away restaurants. I had a wonderful stay, some nice chats, great communication before I arrived (very quick) definitely will return on my next trip. Highly recommended!
