This basement apartment is an excellent value. It is clean and tidy; and it has all the amenities you need for an extended stay: refrigerator, bathroom with shower, table and chairs, kitchen sink and pantry, comfortable bed, and desk with chair. The space is cozy and it has a private entrance from the street. Tricia's place is well-situated vis a vis public transportation. The Staten Island Ferry is just a few minutes away by bus, and the ferry itself is free! This was my first visit to NYC, and Tricia's hospitality made it a particularly memorable experience.
