I had a great time staying at Shannon's place. He's a great host and made his place open and comfortable for me. I would recommend his place to anyone looking to have a great time in NYC, it was my first time visiting the city, but I felt safe and welcomed. He also responded to my messages and questions fairly quickly. I booked his place last minute and was a bit scared of cutting it too close to my arrival, but he was helpful and extremely fast at responding and helping me get settled in.
