We had a wonderful week in NYC. The location was perfect to explore the city and we loved to come back after a day full of expressions and relax on the sofa. The apartment has everything needed to prepare for a day. Check in and communication with Michele was easy. Indeed due to the fact that it is an older house and very central it was a bit noisy sometimes, but for us it was no problem. For people being sensitive to noise ear plugs are recommended. Anytime back in NYC I would stay again here.
