Althea made us very welcome, she met us on the doorstep when we arrived by taxi at around 8.30pm. An extra air con unit was added the same evening as the weather had turned very hot!
Everything we needed was supplied, the rooms were beautifully decorated and everywhere was clean. The kitchen was well stocked and there were plenty of towels and soap, shampoo etc in the bathroom. The rooms were all larger than I expected and as a family of four we had plenty of space to relax after busy days exploring NYC.
The subway station is very close to the apartment to get into Manhattan.
Althea checked in with us by email regularly to make sure we were Ok but was never intrusive, the perfect host.
