Claude is the best host! He’s very hospitable, leaving you breakfast in the morning on the table. He’s flexible with your travel arrangements, letting you keep your luggage in the entryway when you arrive or until you leave, despite check-in or out times. ALSO, please make sure to go visit his restaurant! It’s an amazing French restaurant around the corner called Chez Josephine—live music, white linen tablecloths, and the best French food I’ve ever had. You may have to make a reservation ahead of time; we got lucky that it was a Monday night. Perfect for a pre-Broadway show dinner. Claude is the head chef there. We had the most wonderful time in NYC thanks to our wonderful host!
