Marina is an excellent host, very friendly and easy to deal with. At the stage of arranging the visit she responded to my questions immediately and she proved to be equally reliable when I arrived. Everything worked well in her apartment and she was eager to provide any information I needed. The journey to Manhattan, although rather long (around an hour and a half), did not feel that bad, perhaps because the ferry trip was very nice, especially on a hot summer day. That was my first AirBnB experience and I think I was lucky to find such a lovely host. I do recommend Marina's apartment to everyone!
