Jason's place was wonderful! Both him and his mother went above and beyond my expectations and I felt very welcome! The room itself was simple and clean with a comfortable bed and a powerful air conditioner! Jason gave me lots of recommendations for activities, and his mother cooked me breakfast and even sang a song for me. The house has a great vibe. The neighbourhood is pretty nice, not fancy but plenty of takeaway food options. You'll have to travel a couple of stops on the subway for the nicer bars and restaurants. Getting into Manhattan is super easy, just hop on the F! Takes only around 35 minutes to get to Times Square. Overall a really nice stay!
