Pros: spacious apartment, close to trains, quick access to manhattan, shops nearby, friendly neighbours, comfortable bed, lots of tv channels, safe neighbourhood and very good communication from the host. Plenty of cleaning products and materials, including detergent and softener for the laundry room
Cons: we were checked in by what appeared to be a friend of the host who had never been to the apartment before and couldn’t really answer any questions, but he was friendly enough. The sofa isn’t very comfortable to sit on for longer periods. Hardly any hangers in the wardrobe so we purchased some as we were staying for 12 nights and had brought a lot of stuff with us :-) no baking trays for the oven.
All in all we had a wonderful stay in this lovely apartment and would recommend for anyone wanting to stay in New York :-)
