This is my new 'home-away-from-home' in New York City!

This place is fabulous! The host is friendly, professional, helpful, and makes you feel immediately that you are welcomed and at home. The apartment is spotless, well-equipped, and very comfortable. The subway is literally steps away from the front door.
