Earl has a clean cozy apartment on the UWS. The neighborhood is very convenient for public transportation and very walkable. We walked everywhere. The building needs a makeover but Earls apartment is clean and cozy. The bed was comfortable and low noise ( by NYC standards). A beautiful view of skyscrapers at night and a great new TV ( TV in both LR and BR). Earl is a great host: very responsive. We would definitely stay here again!
