I had a fantastic experience visiting Valentina's apartment. It is situated near the subway station which gives you access to the entire city. There is an elevator in the subway station and in her building which is great when you travel with heavy luggage! The room is clean, very spacious and has excellent natural light. There is a large comfortable bed, a dresser for your clothes and a desk with a mirror which is perfect for putting on make-up. The bathroom is directly across the from the bedroom. When I arrived it began to rain and unfortunately, I did not pack an umbrella. Thankfully, I was offered the use of one of the several umbrellas Valentina and Carlo had to choose from. It was so much appreciated! In the mornings, there is a continental breakfast which is a wonderful bonus. The neighborhood is quiet and I felt safe walking alone late at night/early morning. Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend this apartment to anyone coming to New York City. Thank you so much Carlo for your warm hospitality and I hope to meet Valentina on a future visit!
