My wife and I loved our stay at Kathleen's house during our visit to NYC. There were plenty of free roadside parking spots and so we never had trouble finding a place to park. As for being in Jersey city, it seems like most people always think of it being an unsafe or undesirable place to be. While I would not suggest going on lone walks in this area at night we felt perfectly safe and the neighbors we met in the grocery across the street were kind and friendly (they make excellent cheeseburgers there). The house was very clean and (even though it was during a heat wave) very cool upon our arrival. We were provided with all the amenities we needed to have a comfortable stay. I saw a review about the main bed being lumpy, while I am young I have the back of an 80 year old man so I feel like I can comment on this. I was able to sleep soundly and would say the beds are what you would expect for a bnb stay. Kathleen was very friendly and always responded quickly. She even allowed us to leave our luggage in her living space after checkout so we could see the city one more day before heading to our next stop. We have already recommended Kathleen's place to some friends and would certainly stay here again if we are ever back in the area. Thanks again for our wonderful stay!
