Mr. Geller was very welcoming and accommodating to us. He called us the day before our arrival to talk about the time we were arriving and the best way to get to his house from the airport. He gave a tour of the apartment and then respected our privacy. There is a private entrance to the apartment from the front of the house. The kitchen is fully equipped and Mr. Geller has stocked it with essential cooking items. If we ever needed help getting around, where to print things, etc Mr. Geller was just a phone call away and would help us in any way he could.

Based on experience, getting to NYC from Newark can take any where from 1-2 hours. When you leave Mr. Geller's residence walk to Brook Branch Park to the Newark light rail (cost $1.50 each way) then get off at Newark-Penn Station. Once at the station find the PATH train towards the World Trade Center (cost $2.75 each way). This will drop you off at the 9/11 memorial and museum. From there we walked to close by NYC metro stations to get anywhere in the city that we needed to go. They have a weekly unlimited metro pass for $31/person which is what we purchased, so I'm unsure of single ride price.
