First things first - huge thanks to Maya for being such an excellent host. Key pick up was very simple and the maps and directions left for us in the flat (especially the one she left marking out all the local bars!) were really helpful and a very nice touch. She was also more than willing to let us check out later than usual due to our itinerary.

The flat itself is truly a work of art - I couldn't stop taking photos of it. Having a place like that to come back to after a hectic day makes such a difference. The roof terrace especially was a great place to escape to.

I hope to be in New York again before long and will most certainly be looking to stay here again!
