Mario was a very warm and welcoming host. We asked ihm lots of questions and He was always listening and very helpful. When we arrived he took us for a walk through the neighbourhood and showed us the closest supermarket and resraurants. The area is quiet and lovely. Everything you need is close by (bars, restaurants, bank, supermarket, subway...) several subway lines run near by which bring you into Manhattan. The appartement is super clean and the room is very nice and equiped with everything you need. It was a pleasure staying with Mario.
