Hi Marianne, It was great staying there. I really enjoyed it, and found it very comfortable and convenient. I will definitely try to stay there again when I return! And when I get home, I'll do that comment on the vrbo site. I have to say, I was very sad to say good bye to Kimberly yesterday afternoon. We had started to bond! Cheers, Kathryn Owner: Kathryn never posted her own comment but said this to me in an email message. Kimberly is our cat!

We had a great time, and really enjoyed the apartment. It was perfect for the three of us, and very comfortable. Thanks again for helping make it a great trip. Warm regards, Steve Hi Marianne, Just a note to say thank you for providing us with such for a comfy apartment--much nicer than a hotel. Cheers, Victoria.

We arrived home safely around 4:30 PM yesterday. I didn't have time to say how much we enjoyed your apartment! Great location; just the right size and fun restaurants nearby. We are exhausted from all of the events we accomplished in a week. Many thanks, Patti

Dear Marianne, We had a wonderful time in NYC. Your apartment was a convenient location for us. We even figured out how to use the 86th Street station to take advantage of the express trains. People were very nice and helpful throughout the City. You can use us as a reference if you wish. Later, Mark Young

Homeowner Response:
Rates are based on double occupancy plus $80. per additional person. Any damages are deducted from the security deposit. The apartment is my home and I think is priced accordingly. Our cat is actually quite personable though she is not a playmate for small children. I encourage all guests to promptly communicate any problems and they will be addressed as necessary.
