Petrona is such a great host, we felt very welcomed when we arrived at her house. Milk and bagels were provided, which was really helpful after we got off a long overnight flight. Also, if you are unfamiliar with New York, Petrona will give you some advice to help you get around the city. Periodically she will check in with you to see how things go and she is always ready to help. Speaking of Petrona's house, it is located in a quiet neighborhood. We have the whole floor to ourselves, it is spacious and spotless. The bed is comfortable, towels, soap, and hair dryer are provided. There is sufficient space to stuff our belongings, and bathroom is clean enough. Anyway, a big thanks to Petrona and her husband Mervin for accommodating us for six days, we had a good time in New York and we enjoyed our stay at her house. In short, we highly recommend Petrona's place, amazing price and great housing conditions, you will be amazed once you checked it out!
