Hi, my name is Delia. I have a clean and neat room in a cozy apartment in Manhattan. There's also an elevator in the building, (which is accessed by going up one flight of stairs). The building is monitored by cameras. I've lived in Manhattan practically all my life. I love to meet different people from all over. I love to travel, to go to broadway shows, and the movies. I would love to share some of my travel experiences with you! I recently retired as an office manager at a Radiologic School in a public hospital in the city.
Please note: The room also has a ceiling fan, iron, hair blower, flat iron, DVD player, mirror, dresser and closet. I provide clean sheets and towels. THERE IS PLENTY OF HAND SANITIZERS, AND HAND SOAPS!! For those who are concerned about COVID 19 - I am fully vaccinated. I hope that you are as well.
In order to ease guests of payment concerns, guests may pay balances via Paypal, Zelle, or cash upon arrival to the apartment.
Check-in time is 11:00 am on weekends and 10:00 am on weekdays. Check-out time is 2:00 pm however, if we discuss ahead of time, I can be flexible with both times.... Just tell me what you need, and we can make it happen. I am flexible with cancellations and will issue refunds for early departures resulting in unused nights.
This area is easy enough to walk to other neighborhoods such as Chelsea, China Town, Soho, Noho, West Village and if you like walking, even to midtown.

Delia is the absolut best host any guest could wish for! She's a lovely and kind-hearted person, always up for a little chat and makes sure that her place feels like a home away from home. I will certainly miss talking and laughing with her in the mornings and evenings and sometimes even throughout the day while enjoying one of the countless activities in New York City.
The apartment is very cozily decorated and always clean and neat. Its location makes it easy to get around and start exploring, either by bus and subway or simply by foot.
All in all I can a 1000% recommend staying at Delia's place if you're looking for an enriching and authentic New York experience! I will definitely come and visit her again.July 2023
Delia was wonderful, and welcomed me so warmly into her home. Her apartment is lovely and Delia did everything to make me feel relaxed and comfortable. She helped me with local information, and was a pleasure to talk to. I would definitely stay with Delia next time I'm in NYC.
