Ray’s place was excellent! My two friends and I stayed there 5 nights for our trip to NYC. The house is a short bus ride/cab ride to the Newark Penn Station, and from there you can get right into the city via the Path or the NJ transit. The house was clean, exactly as pictured, and very cute. The beds and linens were comfortable and clean. I didn’t get the opportunity to meet Ray, but she responded quickly to any messages or questions I had. The neighborhood seemed very safe as well. It was a bit loud being so close to the airport (planes taking off and landing) but Ray provides earplugs and there are plenty of fans to provide white noise. I would definitely stay at Ray’s place again!
