Lena was more than just helpful as a host - meeting me at the flat in the evening, I arrived to food and water, making it possible for me to stay in and relax after a long trip as opposed to having to rush to the shops. The flat was clean and beautiful. Throughout my stay Lena was always available in helping me with questions. She offered to lend me equipment she happened to have for a course I was doing, which made working from home much easier - something I could not have expected. On all occasions she was quick and helpful in her responses, for example when I was uncertain on the best way to travel back to the airport or whether could store luggage throughout the day. This is a lovely flat to stay in whilst in New York, and Lena is a magnificent host!
