Lisa and Orville are great hosts who are chill, friendly and responsive in communication. They are very knowledgeable about NYC and NJ, and gave us tips on how to explore around. The check in was easy with they key code given. We had access to the entire basement home, of which includes the living area, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. The kitchen is well equipped with all the basic cooking amenities (pots, pans, microwave, oven, utensils etc.). There's coffee machine for us to enjoy a cuppa too. We are grateful for the access to the washing machine and the dryer, which are conveniently located in the kitchen area. Shower is great - good water pressure and hot water access (as hot as you want it!). We were provided with fresh towels and linens as well.
The listing is located in the heart of NJ where the people live. The neighbourhood is multi-cultural, which is interesting to see people from all walks of life. In the day you can see families and kids playing and hanging around the streets, which are also well lit at night. Just a few minutes walk away, you can find eateries, liquor store, supermarket, and salons. Suggestion for getting to Manhattan: take uber to JSQ Path station (for $5-6), then take a PATH train to whichever part of NYC you wanna go to. The journey can take about an hour depending where you are headed to.
The thing to note would probably be that the kitchen area is beside the walkway leading into the house can be a lil narrow for those with walking aids, such as walking frame/crutches/wheelchair. Accessibility can be an issue for those with wheelchairs too as there are some steps at the entrance of the home. However, this was no issue for us. In all, Lisa and Orville had been very welcoming and attentive to our needs. This home is definitely a great choice for its price point and facilities available. We would recommend this to everyone :)
