Magda's place was really nice. Nice decoration, clean bathroom, big common area, comfortable and cozy. The check in was fast and very easy. Communication with host was also very good. To go to Manhattan you have 30 min by foot to Path station where you take the train to downtown (30 more min), we always took uber and we paid 7 dollars per ride to Path station, then you have to pay the train to NYC. there is a bus but we did not take it.
