Joseph's place is wonderful for someone looking to explore the city. the apartment is very comfortable a quiet, and nicely decorated. as another reviewer mentioned, there is no TV and no microwave (but if you're in JC, you're so close to entertainment, you don't need a TV!) and the oven works just fine for heating up food. the apartment is a quick 10-15 minute walk to the PATH station (and then another 10 to get into the city - so quick!), and steps from shops and restaurants. The area is very nice, i frequently walked back alone after hitting the bars at night and never once felt unsafe. Joseph was also a great host and, even though he was out of town, was very quick to let me know i would have anything i needed while i was there. I visit NJ/NYC every three months and will definitely be looking to book here again. thanks, Joseph!
