My wife and I visited NYC for a quick weekend trip to celebrate our wedding anniversary and Mary's place provided the perfect location for all we wanted to do while there. Her place is just a few blocks from the train and a short walk from the food, culture and shopping of Manhattan's Lower East Side and Greenwich Village. Mary was very responsive to the questions I had in the days leading up to our trip, full of great recommendations for places to grab a bite or a drink, and was very accommodating of our timeline, meeting up with us after we spent a full day walking and sight-seeing around Manhattan. Mary's apartment is on the fourth floor of an apartment building located in Chinatown - important to note because you will be walking up to her apartment and unfortunately some unpleasant smells filled the hallways and stairwells of the building. Not to worry though because Mary's apartment did not share the same odors and this obviously is something outside of her control. To sum up, Mary's apartment is comfortable and conveniently located, and Mary was a communicative and accommodating host. Would definitely stay again and would recommend to others.
