We had a very confortable stay at Ravanna's apartment. We never met Ravanna in person, but we were welcomed by his siblings. They were amazing hosts. The apartment it's spacious, neat, and well provided. Super high speed wi-fi, fluffy beds, pillows and sofa. Lots of hot water. We had a problem with a window and Ravanna's brother solved the problem inmediately. The best thing about our experience is the privacy we had all the time. That's priceless. The neighbourhood is picturesque, and we found friendly, respectful and helpful people everywhere. All services at hand, grocery stores, auto-laundry, pharmacy, restaurants, subway and bus stops. We got home very late several nights and we never felt insecure. I highly recomend book with Ravanna when you visit NYC.
