Bright and spacious apartment close to the Plaza
We enjoyed our stay at Carmela's Penthouse. Her place had lots of natural light and was spotless. The steps up were not steep and easy to climb. While we did not cook, the kitchen would be easy to cook in and included everything needed for simple cooking. She included a wide selection of teas and a package of nice cookies, too, a very nice touch! My only recommendation is to list all of the many amenities on vrbo online and not just on the app as many of us older folks use our laptops not our phones to search for places to stay.
