Spent three days at John's place while in NYC, visiting my daughter, and it was a wonderful experience. John met me at my Uber and helped me take my luggage to his apartment and showed me to my room (actually HIS bedroom, but he stayed on the trundle bed in the living room while I was there). The bedroom is down the hall from the living room. He prefers you take your shoes off at the door, but that's okay, because I like a clean place, too! It was a lovely apartment...beautiful hard wood floors, a nice and CLEAN bathroom and a HUGE bedroom. I'd say it's 20 x 15. And, it has a great view of the Riverside Park. The bed was super comfy and he has a window unit for cool air if you get hot, which I did use. There's a TV in the room and it gets all the channels, but I wasn't in my room much, except to sleep. There's an elevator as his apartment is on the fourth floor and it is very safe and secure. I'd definitely recommend this neighborhood. It's just a block away from Broadway, but has more of a residential feel. John is a gracious host. He's a very busy man who works hard and from home most of the time, so I saw him a lot at night when I'd return home and we had some great conversations. I'd definitely recommend his apartment and hope to stay with him again when I visit my daughter again.
