A nice apartment in a good location on Roosevelt Island, with great views of the city. The host is excellent, great communication, very friendly and hospitable.
My room was nice, clean and comfortable as was the bathroom. A good selection of books is provided if you feel like reading!
Getting into Manhattan is very easy, and I recommend taking the tramway for convenience and the view of the city. It runs from 6am-3am on Friday and Saturday which is great if you want to stay late in Manhattan.
There is so much to see and do in NYC, some of my favourites being Central Park and especially the John Lennon memorial, Soho, Little Italy and Greenwich Village. For a great pizza go to John’s on Bleecker Street, but be prepared for a wait because it’s popular. Use the subway to get around and walk, it’s the best way to see and experience the city.
