We booked our stay with Simone a few days before our flight and she was very responsive and communicative. We landed earlier than expected and we’re allowed to check in early. The place was very close to the subways and buses. We were able to do an 11 min walk to the subway to take our trains to manhattan.
Simone’s place is in a very quiet neighborhood, there’s a few stores around the corner you can walk to if you need anything as well.
Overall our host was great and very hospitable. We recommend her and would stay with her again.
A little tip, we bought the 7 day unlimited metro pass which helped us travel throughout NY, that was about $30 for 7 days and it was worth it. we didn’t spend money on Uber’s or renting a car.
