Neil and his wifes place was beautiful and exactly as pictured, we felt right at home straight away. Communication was really good and they were both on hand to help and answer any questions.
The tube is definitely a good 10mins walk, in the heat it can seem longer but it is doable. We felt very safe in the area, and it takes about 30mins to get to Manhattan.
I would definitely come back again next time I am in New York.
Thank you again for hosting me!
