We arrived to a warm welcome from Larah and her beautiful infant daughter. The apartment was everything it was described to be via the photos and text. It was terrific! There were books to be read, lots of information about what to do and where to go in NYC, menus to order in, a great kitchen and eat-in dining/living area off of the kitchen. It is an elegantly restored brownstone with lovely high ceilings. It was quiet and the bedroom and bathroom were everything we wanted. Larah was a gracious host and fully available to answer our questions and direct us to places we could visit. We even found street parking a few blocks away and our car remained safely in the same spot all weekend. We highly recommend Larah's apartment if you're planning on visiting NYC. Have a great time, we did, thanks to Larah!!
