Oh they were so sweet! Will treat you like family. I've been to NYC several times but first time in Washington heights. I loved it, seemed like a good community. Soaked up some history- washingtons fort was just two blocks away.
The room was comfortable. I didn't plan to be home most if the day, just needed essentials like good shower, wifi and comfy bed :) friendly cat always there to keep me company.
I recommend to couples (or close friends who don't mind sharing a bed) or solo travelers who like having company around. Nidia and Henri are friendly but give lots of privacy. Sweetest ever!
