Fiona's apartment is in the best neighborhood in NYC. It's truly a charming area with everything you need close by. We enjoyed a great variety of restaurants, shops and so many friendly people. There is quick access to subways, buses and taxis. Make no mistake, this is an old apartment in need of some new paint and it has a very creaky old wood floor. It also badly needs a smoke alarm. But the shower is good and the kitchen works fine if you choose to eat in, which we never did--too many great restaurants nearby. Our stay happened during an unseasonably hot and HUMID week in October so the bedroom never really cooled off. The main living area has an AC unit that kept that space comfortable.
Fiona was very responsive and warm in her all of her communications. It's obvious that she lives in this space so be prepared for her stuff being everywhere. There isn't any extra closet space if you want to hang your clothes. The three big selling points for this apartment are its location, its size and its responsive host. I can't say enough about the amazing neighborhood!
