  Kat was very flexible and helpfull during our stay. She arranged for us a place very close to the center of Split and just a few minutes from the beach. We had a good time in Croatia. Thanx

  Just left Kat and her family in Split a few days ago. Kat gave us information and answered all of our questions about her charming city. The studio apartment is a gem. Newly remodeled with modern appliances, microwave, stove, well stock with kitchen and dishware, and it is air conditioned! For this time of the year it is a necessity. We used Kat's pick up service from the airport and he took us right up to the door. The apartment is centrally located in the heart of Split, close to the harbor, bus transportation, beaches, public markets for fresh fruits and veggies. Perfect location, highly recommended over a hotel. Their is wi fi if you bring you computer, If not, the best place is by the harbor. Thank you Kat for making our stay a wonderful memory! Best regards.

  We stayed for a night in this fabulous little studio on May 29th. It is beautifully set up and has everything you could need for a comfortable stay, in a perfect location right in the old town, a really short walk from everything. Split is lovely and worth far more time than we had allowed to visit it, and should we ever return, we would definitely stay here again. Thank you so mach, Kat!

  Kat was a great host. The studio was perfect for us. It's located on a square in the middle of old town, close to the open market, shops and sea. If you are visiting Split you can't have a better location. The apartment has been beautifully renovated to show off it's "old world charm" and history. Of course with modern convenience (microwave, shower, fridge). You hear all the activity of the square during the day which we liked...but it was quiet at night. It's small but just right. We loved our stay. We'll be back again for sure.

  We found Kat's apartment exactly as the ;photo showed. It is small, clean and very conveniently located with a crosstown bus stop directly opposite. But we also found it easy to walk to many of the main areas and eat very well at eateries within a block or two of the apartment. We found Kat and her husband very helpful, attending to any of our requirments promptly and pleasantly. The only drawback was the noise coming from upstairs' heavy "bootsteps" each morning at 6:45am and later agan at night. However we would be very happy this apartrment and Katerina .

  AWESOME! Book it! You couldn't stay in a nicer place or be dealing with a nicer host! Kat is very prompt in responding to messages or emails and she is most helpful and will try and accommodate your itinerary. The flat itself is in a brilliant location - with a deli and a diner on the corners 49thSt / 1stAve. It is very well equipped - Kat has really thought about her guests needs whilst travelling and has some city guides and info, a hairdryer, wi-fi, super comfy bed, soft fluffy towels, etc ready for you - really it is a HOME FROM HOME! It is also surprisingly quiet considering it is in the town that never sleeps. All in all: The perfect place for your New York adventures! Thank you Kat!

  We rented Kats place in total 9 days in april 2012. The place is fantastic and we had a lovely time. Even if the area is not the biggest hot spot in NY, it gives you a unique look in how the locals live. I will recommend this place without a doubt. Kat was very helpful and did more than expected for us when one of my bag was late arrived from my transfer. I give her my best recommandations.

  Two adults and a teenager shared this great little studio for a spring break Manhattan adventure - we loved it! It is in a quiet upscale neighborhood, lots of great eating options all around (Ess-a-bagel for breakfast!), and we could walk to Times Square, Rockefeller Center, etc. Walked home after Broadway shows several evenings. Two blocks to the subway and the 6 train to the village, Brooklyn Bridge, or museum mile. The place was exactly as pictured, Kat was friendly and helpful, and it was a great home base for our explorations. Highly recommended!

  Visiting the US from England with 2 children this was my first AirBnB stay so was a bit apprehensive. Need not have worried, Kat was lovely and was there on our arrival and was very friendly and helpful throughout our stay, Great location, nice, safe neighbourhood, well located for the sights of Manhattan. Subway, banks, supermarket, restaurants are all nearby. We walked to Rockefeller centre, Central Park etc. Apartment was just like the pictures and had everything we needed TV, wifi, iron, kitchen with appliances etc. Nice view of UN building and Trump World Tower from window. We enjoyed our stay very much. Highly recommended.

  This apartment was perfect for us. We have two boys aged 4 and 6 who enjoyed the space and could be put to bed downstairs in the evening and not be disturbed by us watching TV upstairs. The location suited us too as we brought their scooters with us and they regularly scooted along the riverside promenade. They used the pool most days too. It's a decent size lap pool and we didn't ever need to share it. The only thing is that the concierge required a photo ID to give us a fob. We only had passports with us and were uncomfortable with it being tossed into an unsecured drawer so didn't leave it with him the hole stay. Instead we had to to-and-fro for every pool trip. I'd suggest taking a low value photo ID for this purpose. We enjoyed our breakfasts at the restaurant attached to the Sheraton (practically next door) and the occasional evening meal at Houlihan's (across the road). We had less success trying to order in. The pizza place wanted a phone number but with no landline in the apartment and their process unable accommodate our UK mobile, we had to go and order/fetch it ourselves. We didn't try any other restaurants for food delivery after this experience. Travel to Manhattan was easy. Any bus that stops across the road will take you to the Port Authority Bus Station (which is the next stop), from there you can easily transfer to the subway system. We got a great value Metrocard, valid for a week ($29 for adults, children didn't need them). There's a ferry stop next to the apartment, however this is more expensive and the stop on the other side of the Hudson is not so conveniently located. (Great for the Intrepid Air and Space Museum and the Jacob Javits Convention Center). Tickets for both bus and ferry can be purchased at the deli shop attached to the apartment complex. We got our Metrocard at a news stand at the Port Authority Bus Station. We had a fantastic holiday. It was our second trip to NY and would recommend staying here rather than a mid-town hotel, especially with kids. The only thing we'd do differently about the whole trip would be to NOT go up the Empire State Building and go up the Chrysler building instead which, of course, has nothing to do with this fab apartment!

  If you are looking for a cosy apartment in a white neighborhood then this is not the place for you BUT if you are looking for a comfortable, renovated new apartment with a great great shower and very convenient location (only 2 blocks down to the metro and 7 minute walk to Central Park ) within Latino and african-american communities then this is definitely the place to go. Staying in Kat's apartment made our experience memorable as we felt we were really living in a neighborhood of NYC, also there are many places to go eat and small shops. Very convenient, clean&new.

  Kat was very friendly and always available when needed. The apartment was very nice, well decorated and in a prime location. I would certainly recommend it for my friends!

  Kat was awesome. We were in communication before we even arrived and we felt very reassured that we knew exactly where to go and when to meet her. As we were staying for a long period of time, she very kindly upgraded us to another apartment that had a washer and dryer. It was in a better location and was perfect for two people. The only downside (some might not even think it's a downside) was that as the apartment was on the 3rd floor, all the heat from the building essentially was in our apartment so in the dead of winter we slept with the window open. Again, not the worst thing that could have happened! The apartment also had a dishwasher and a well equipped kitchen (with new appliances) so it made cooking a great option. The apartment was very clean, and had everything we could have wanted for two weeks. The apartment was in a great location (E50th/2nd ave) which gave us very easy options of public transport (buses, subways etc). I would have no hesitation staying with Kat again and look forward to referring my friends and family on.
