    Great hospitality

    May 04, 2013

    A perfect place to be. In Harlem, nearby a subway and Central Park. Nice bedroom and bathroom, clean. Carlos and Cesar are very nice people and are very hospitable. The breakfast made by Carlos was every morning more than good. Everything was fresh and selfmade. Also the advise for the restaurants was very good. We've had a perfect time in NY and yes the B&B is "our favorite place". Thanks again Cesar and Carlos (from Holland)

    Después de nuestra estancia, este es nuestro alojamiento favorito en NY, too!

    March 23, 2013

    El pasado 7 de marzo llegamos a casa de Carlos y César con toda la ilusión del alojamiento que habíamos encontrado, después de leer los comentarios que los huéspedes anteriores habían escrito es esta página, y podemos afirmar que My Favorite Place in NY superó nuestras expectativas!!! Queremos agradecer a Carlos y César lo bien que nos trataron, desde el primer momento nos sentimos muy cómodos y supimos que habíamos tenido la suerte de encontrar un lugar muy especial, hay que decir que el cariño con el que lo tratan se nota en todos y cada uno de los detalles!! Para nosotros es un B&B "con alma" ;-) Nos llevamos un muy grato recuerdo de confort y amabilidad. La casa está muy limpia, la cama es muy cómoda y los desayunos recién horneados cada mañana, fueron espectaculares!!!! También las recomendaciones de restaurantes que nos hacía Carlos cada mañana, hicieron que el viaje aún resultara más especial!! También queremos dejar constancia de la amabilidad de César, al ayudar a nuestros amigos a enviarme un regalo sorpresa al B&B por mi 40 cumpleaños, durante los días que estuvimos allí alojados, nuestros amigos desde Mallorca también te dan las gracias a través de estos comentarios! Carlos, César volvimos hace 1 semana de NY y ya tenemos ganas de volver y estar en vuestro B&B de nuevo!! Miquel y Celia desde Mallorca (Spain).

    4-days stay in November: perfect!

    March 04, 2013

    Carlos and Caesar were outstanding guests! My father and I stayed at their place for 3 nights. They were very accomodating and very nice with both of us. Breakfast was a dream! I'd recommend Carlos&Caesar's place to anyone! Enjoy!

    Lucky us

    December 24, 2012

    My daughter and I were lucky enough to stay here for a few days during Thanksgiving. Advantages: 1. Room as nice or nicer than any uptown hotel. 2. Significantly less expensive. 3. Friendly, adorable hosts. 4. Easy subway access to anything. 5. Breakfasts to die for. Disadvantages: None. The little book left in the room for guests to write comments makes for interesting reading. Carlos and Cesar have had guests from everywhere in the world, and not one has left anything but the most glowing reviews. Plus, I stupidly left my camera there when we went home and they notified me that same night and took the camera to a nearby UPS where I was able to arrange for it to be mailed back to me. Would not consider staying anywhere else on our future trips to NYC. These guys made a wonderful trip MORE than wonderful.

    I will stay again!

    December 06, 2012

    Just stayed for a Christmas visit with an old time friend and Carlos and Cesar were over the top in taking care of us. I would stay here again and visit the area around here more. Carlos is a great chef who take pride in his food and it shows!! Everyone in the building was nice. Great bus lines all around.

    A perfect address for a stay in New York

    October 31, 2012

    Last September, we had the opportunity to stay in NY for about nine days. After we did some research on the internet, we decided to choose "My favorite place" for our stay. And ... we were not disappointed! First of all, the location of the cosy B&B is perfect for people who want to discover the Big Apple: two different subway lines that bring you to the city center straight away are just a few blocks away. "My favourite place" itself is situated in a friendly and pleasant neighbourhood: shops and restaurants can be found within walking distance. The innkeepers Carlos and Cesar are very friendly and helpful: indeed, it felt as if we stayed with friends we knew for years! And of course ... the breakfasts! Each morning, we started with a fresh and homemade breakfast, prepared by Carlos. Heaven ...

    First time in NYC

    October 25, 2012

    As first-time visitors to the Big Apple, we feel lucky to have found My Favorite Place. It was an oasis of comfort and quiet relaxation amid the bustle and crowds of the City. It was like having our own apartment and private breakfast chef! Our room was very comfortable and clean. Robes and hair dryer in the bathroom were a nice touch. Carlos' breakfasts were superb and filling. On a few days, we even skipped lunch thanks to our delicious and hearty breakfast. The location was ideal: away from the crowds and noise of Manhattan hotels, but not too far away from museums and other attractions. The bus and subway stops were no more than a few blocks away. We felt safe walking to and from them at any time of the day or night. Carlos and Cesar were outstanding hosts--friendly and helpful but careful to allow us our privacy too. Carlos got us reservations at a fantastic West Village restaurant on our wedding anniversary. We'll never forget our week at My Favorite Place.

    Perfect stay

    August 01, 2012

    We had fantastic 5 days in NYC with Carlos and Cesar and highly recommend this B&B. The room was clean and the bed comfortable, and we had a private bathroom. Carlos breakfast was outstanding, we really enjoyed the scones, muffins, yogurt, the breakfast cereals and the variety of fruit. Whenever we come back to NYC, we will stay in this B&B again.
