We planned a quick trip to NYC and thought we'd give airbnb a try. To our surprise it was fantastic! Caroline was a great host. We had everything we needed. We were close enough to Manhattan to get into the city by train quickly (30 - 40 min) and far enough away from the city to have nice peaceful evenings. The room was very clean and neat. You share a decent size apartment with a few other guests and have a private room all to yourself. There are some rules that are explained at the beginning that need to be followed but nothing you shouldn't do anyway! We hope to get back to NYC soon and will definitely stay here again!
