I stayed for one week and would definitely come again. Martine and her son are the most warm and welcoming hosts you can imagine. The room and the whole apartment are beautiful and very clean.
The neighborhood is industrial there are some people from the shelter hanging around two blocks away. This might seem frightening for some, but I personally did never encounter any problems, even waking alone at night.
Check out the Bronx Brewery, which is right in the neighborhood.
Thanks for he wonderful stay!
