If we good give this a rating, it would be an "11"!!!! Second stay in the last 6 months. HOME AWAY FROM HOME is the best way to describe it -- very safe (3 locked doors to the street), very neat, clean, updated, and every gadget imaginable in the kitchen. We even had a small dinner party one night since my husband's cousin lives on the same street. The location is perfect, lots within walking distance, and 3 subway lines within 2 blocks. Hosts live in townhouse above the garden apartment and welcome you on the sidewalk with a key! Once you stay here, you can never go back to a hotel -- no elevators to deal with, no noisy neighbors. Looking forward to going back in October!!
