We had an incredible time in Patricia's house.

As a group of 15 theater students, we rented the 2nd and 3rd floor apartments, and we all had more than enough space (we could of easily been 2-3 more)

Everything was clean and tidy. The beds were all comfortable. The electronics were all brand new.The bathrooms were surprisingly not New-York-like (the bath was still white!).

We arrived very early (5 in the morning), and Patricia kindly let us in early, since nobody was there the day before. We got greeted with fresh orange juice, milk and coffee in the cupboards.

We talked with the host on the first day, got to know her a bit, got the basics on what to do with the trash, on where to buy food nearby, etc. (There is a 24h supermarket two blocks away and the metro ABCD is literally around the block)

After that, she was very discreet, and let us be in her wonderful place.

We would gladly recommend this to any group wanting a cheap/ well kept/nicely placed apartment downtown New York.
