Elle and Rob are wonderful attentive and undobtrusive hosts, I felt very lucky that I stayed with them. I spent five weeks in their house on Staten Island. The room is a studio, comfortable and well equipped. I also enjoyed the lovely garden a lot. It is easy to get to Manhattan by ferry, the station is close, a nice walk passing by grocery shops and restaurants. Staten Island itself has great places to visit too, like parks and museums. There is a lot of information about all sights of SI and NYC laid out in the room. In addition, any time I mentioned to Elle what I was going to do, she usually gave me some great ideas to improve my plans which I appreciated very much. Occasionally I joined in to music events Elle and Rob attended and so I felt like being a little bit integrated in Staten Island life and it was fun. The WiFi is best if you use it sitting in the armchair next to the TV. The bed is very comfortable, the bathroom really clean and Elle gave me fresh towels every third day and she refilled a basket with fruits and snacks when it was necessary. Again I would like to thank Rob and Elle for this wonderful time and warmheartedly recommend them to new guests! Eli
