First I would like to thanks Violetta : she's a perfect host and she's been a absolutly wonderful during sandy's hurricane days.
The apartment is just perfect : very well located and convenient : subways and buses "just at the door" and everything you need all around (good and fresh food, deli's, restaurants, ...)
very sunny with a large terrace with amazing skyline views, and so warm, cosy and clean; it make you feel like at your own home and for a long stay (3 weeks for me) it means !
so without any hesitation I would recommend this place for a wonderful stay in NYC. and I hope to have the chance to stay again on my next trip to NYC
