Fernando was a great host! He responded to messages immediately and was available for a later check-in than anticipated. The apartment was clean and spacious, and the left snacks/drinks and toiletries were a nice touch. The apartment is about 45 minutes from Manhattan (30 minutes on the train, plus around 7 minutes walking from each station). It doesn't feel like the safest area at night, but we had no problems. Overall, this apartment is a great value in the NYC area!
