The place is in a safe residential area called Knightsbridge, handy for bus and subway. Bring your cell and your laptop - all other electrical stuff she'll lend you. The price for this quality is the best in town -- $85 per night! She only has the one room and has many repeat guests, so call or e-mail her as soon as you know your plans.
