Emma is an excellent host, the place was clean and tidy in a nice neighborhood on Manhattan. Kitchen is full with everything you need to prepare any meal, we were out most of the day, and used it for breakfast only, which was great. There is a nice back yard which can be used as well for meals, or any other reason. The beds were comfortable, and we had enough room for all 5 of us and all our stuff. Definitely better than squishing in any hotel room... Public transportation is a block or 2 away, and a 20 min ride in the subway takes you to the heart of Manhattan. Will definitely stay again.
