Staying in Eric's apartment was a real pleasure! The apartment is located only 2 blocks from the subway station and you have all facilities close by (7Eleven, laundry, grocery store, fastfood restaurants and more!). Look out for a great Crepe shop next to 7Eleven with nice coffee for breakfast - not to be missed!
Now the space is smaller than we expected but we really dont mind as we only in the apartment to sleep at night and it fits 4 of our rarther large luggage just fine!
Eric was a great host! He contacted me even a month before I arrived in US and a week prior arrived in NY. And during the 7 days we were there he make sure that we are fully taken care off. Even recommending some museum to visit while in NY!
