Having stayed with Michael for 3 months now, i can say that he is a wonderful host that really cares about his guests. If you need something, you can just text him and he is taking care of it! If you're open to it, you can also have great conversations with him! He gives you insider tips where to get good food from, where to play snooker, and what to do on the weekends. He also got us baseball tickets, which was very generous. Thanks, Michael :)
Now the apartment: I stayed in New York before and have to say that I was surprised how quiet it is! You don't hear any street noise, which is amazing!
The bed is very comfortable, and there is definitely enough storage for 2. Bathroom is spacious and kitchen is equipped with everything you need to prepare a nice dinner. I would even say that the apartment is nicer than it appears on the pictures.
The area is next to Madison square Garden, which is very central. You can walk everywhere in Midtown, and even can jog to Central Park. There is also a fairly large supermarket around the corner.
The super, Tommy who lives in the building is simply amazing! He is always there if you have any problems and can fix small things easily.
All in all, great host and great apartment. I will definitely book again with Michael and will guide my friends into his direction.
