We enjoyed staying at Nicholas' house a lot. It was basic, but comfortable and there is everything you need. Sharing the bathroom was easy to make. The view is really amazing. It takes time to get to Manhattan and at the weekend the ferry drives only once per hour(but it's a nice drive!), on the other hand the place is a good retreat from the Manhattan urban life.
Nicholas is a good host! He was friendly and welcoming, a good communicator before and during our stay. We appreciate it a lot that he waited for us until 1am when we arrived and that he woke up very early to say good-bye when we left.
I would always recommand this location!
