John is a very nice host who made sure we had everything needed. He filled a little bit the fridge for us and he showed us how to use his equipments.
The location of his place is perfect to visit Manhattan. Thanks to the lines B and C, you can go from central Park to coney Island directly. Or simply go straight to times Square.
Be aware of the heater that cannot be turned off until the end of May, so the place might be hot around these days. Also, there is some noise because of the fridge but it's OK compared to many other apartments in NYC because you don't hear much the noise in the streets (police, firefighters...).
