I was pleasantly surprised to find a warm, friendly and interested hostess in Christine. She did everything she could to make my stay a happy one, which it was. As others have stated, her place was very clean and tidy. Because the room faces Broadway, it is usually noisy there but with the window closed and the fan on to create "white noise" I was able to sleep without earplugs. A plus for me was that my home-away-from-home is only one block from the family members I was visiting. When I visit them again, I would try to stay with Christine. Many thanks, Christine.
