Myself and my 11 year old son returned two weeks ago from a two week stay with Count in New York, We had a fantastic stay and were so glad we chose to stay with Count. He and his friend Rock made us so welcome and were so helpful in so many ways, including taking us to a barber to cut my son's hair - the haircut was fabulous! The apartment was very clean and spacious and Count was a very friendly, gracious, but discrete host. Count gave me so much help with subways/buses that I was soon getting around New York with ease. Nothing was too much trouble - once Count went to the shops for me after midnight to buy tomatoes because I had run out and he insisted on going out to get some for me. An unbelievably kind thing to do. The location was perfect - 5 mins from the subway that took you straight to Manhattan in about 30 minutes. Area felt very safe and we happily walked to the apartment late at night on a number of occasions. Count was a truly caring host and I really enjoyed the many conversations that we had. If you chose Count as your host you will not be disappointed. I certainly intend to stay with Count when I return to New York.
