We stayed at Douglas' apartment in May 2018 for 18 days. The apartment was clean, roomy and well equipped with cooking equipment and cleaning products. It was very quiet and we had access to the back garden. The apartment is well located to the nearby subway for travelling to Manhattan (2 or 5 train). There is a large supermarket (Western Beef) within 5 minutes walk of the apartment. Doug was a wonderful and thoughtful host who helped us find our way around NY, made recommendations of places to go/see and where to shop, and made sure that we had everything we needed within the apartment. I would definitely recommend the apartment if you are visiting NY.
