We had some trouble checking in, but it was mainly because the lock was a bit stuck. When I couldn’t reach Kumar on the phone he was very quick to answer the door and assist us in, showing us around and making us aware of all the amenities offered. Not only that but when we were delayed to the inevitable New York traffic he was more than accommodating with our late arrival. Parking can be difficult between many fire hydrants and specific street parking, but after a diligent search we found the perfect spot right around the corner. Kumar was an absolute gentleman and very polite with every text and email sent with my own anxious tendencies, and it was so welcoming. I had never been to New York before and his was the first impression on me, and he definitely left a great lasting one. For a place that is comfortable, trendy, and close to public transportation as you explore the big city, Kumar’s is one of the best! We would be happy to return again on our next visit!
