Rafael's place was the perfect size and great location. Rafael was always quick to respond and very accommodating with our checkout time. The kitchen was very well equipped, with a supermarket just a block away and a short walk or bus ride to Staten Island ferry. Bedrooms are very spacious and comfortable, plenty of towels and very comfortable spaces to chill out, either in the kitchen or the lounge. Staten Island Ferry is very regular, runs 24hrs and is free with great views of manhattan day and night.
