The stay at Amanda's place went great! The room is as pictured, and the bed was very comfortable! Amanda was very helpful, and suggested great places for lunch! My favorite was Katz's Delicatessen which is a couple blocks away. The apartment was close to a variety of subway lines and bus stops. The surrounding area was just beautiful, and so alive during the day. Overall it was an amazing expirance to visit New York, and it all started with Amanda's hospitality!
