Even though I was running very late from the agreed schedule, Cynthia was welcoming and very nice. Her little dog was very cute, so plus points for that :) I absolutely loved the very artistic apartment, which was exactly as described. The location was perfect for me, pretty much every place where I wanted to go was within walking distance. My schedule was so busy I didn't really get to see Cynthia much, but when I left I had the chance to talk with her a bit and I think she's a really great and energetic host :) I will definitely be in contact with her next time I will be staying in New York!
