Carol is a great host, there were breakfast options stocked such as bagels (excellent!) , juice, milk etc including drinking water. She was also very nice to bring us out to direct us to the nearest public transportation =). Though the apartment was quite chilly at first, after letting Carol know she immediately rectified the heating within a day. Except for the location (takes about an hr to get to times square by subway), this is not a bad place to stay especially if you have 4 pax travelling together.
