Michaels place is a home away from home. A beacon of peace in the chaos that is NYC. He's incredibly helpful, friendly and welcoming. Had quite a few long talks when we were both chilling in the apartment. The place gives you all the privacy you need between big outings in the city. The garden is a little zen place for morning routines and the fish are great. Without a doubt worth the money and my immediate choice for when I visit the city again.
