Relatively inexpensive, 175. pr week.
We spent 4 lovely days vacationing in the city at a 4 star hotel, on day 4 , I dropped her off. As we toured her lovely living quarters, her eyes were indescribable. Maybe, Terror! Dark, HOT, strange, clean?, interesting......
Her first night, she bought a fan at Brookstone to battle the heat, only one left! 50.00 (for a fan) The only thing is - it is the size of a water bottle, not much air flow! Bites, bites, she forgot to put on the mattress cover I bought her.....(silly girl). Next day, zip it on, wash bedding in HOT water and throw out pillow!
Shower, now this is cute. She tried 3 different showers, one had no pressure, two had lots of mold and no water, three had great pressure- loads of mold- showered in shoes without touching the shower curtain..... Now we know why is has loads of mold!
Next- day 2 She tried the food that was included in the $175 week fee....Not great and they loaded her up, just so you know, they expect you to eat ALL of it and will harass you to do so. So, needless to say she wouldn't eat there unless she was starving.
Day 3 - HOT soooo HOT - there is only a/c in the chapel. My advice, go in with a pillow and sleep under a pew. She went to cool down, but chickened out on the sleeping notion. Good thing, because in NYC you never know where there might be rodents....ugh
Day 4 - RUNNING to get in before curfew! 11 pm sharp they lock the doors, you are out of luck getting in. Make sure you have an emergency back up plan and card if this happens....trust me
Day 5 - SHE cries that she will NEVER stay here again.... She is already looking for another place for the next internship..
