Ray's brownstone was absolutely ideal! For those of us who can't afford to stay in (pricey) lower Manhattan, the brownstone apartment was charming and has easy access to the subway system; we could easily get to anywhere we wanted to go in 15 minutes or less. The apartment itself was sparkling clean with many more amenities than we expected. We felt completely safe and "at home". It's super value for everything the Ray's apartment has to offer. Highly, highly recommend. We will definitely stay with Ray again when in New York!
