Recently, I boarded a flight to New York City in order to visit some of our property partners. Not only did I benefit from spending time with these valued operators, but I was also able to gain insight into what they can offer in this city and beyond.

ABA Ideal have over 50 units in ARO alone, a monumental amount for New York City, a city renowned for its space restrictions. This number of rooms makes the property great for business travellers who book in large groups. Furthermore, many apartments include their own washer and dryer; ask any native New Yorker, and this is a rarity.

Goodbye NYC, for now
It was amazing to visit New York, even if it was both freezing and raining the entire time! The city is home to many of our property partners' flagship locations, which offer a very wide selection of choices for our clients. Granted the city is always on our radar in terms of enquiries, and it is refreshing to witness how New York properties are keeping up with the high expectations of the modern business traveller.
