Joanna is a great host! Good communication with directions and local tips. The apartment is very clean and comfortable. Taking the NYC Bus 51 back and worth to the 42nd St Port Authority station was very easy access to The City. ($3.50 cash each way) We always felt safe and everyone was very friendly in the neighborhood. It was very interesting and enjoyable meeting new FlatMates using the shared space. Great value with a bit of local experience. Thanks Joanna
