The host is very friendly and helpful. We stayed in the top-floor apartment. It is a historical building with nice details, especially the roof skylight with the orange colors in the hallway. There are two spacious bedrooms. The way to Manhattan can be a bit complicated (takes some time). We first took an Uber to Journal Square and then the PATH train to WTC. After 30 min you can take the metro in downtown Manhattan. There is also a bus (10 min walk) to Exchange Place.
In the neighborhood is quiet, not so special, there is a Italian take-away. All the shops and restaurants are in Journal Square or Exchange Place. The rooms were clean. It was a very hot and humid weekend, so this was a warm place to stay, but there was airconditioning (not in the kitchen). Would recommend to stay there.
