Just, stay here! We had a wonderful time in Justin's fantastic apartment - it was a perfect home base to explore NYC! The room is lovely, very clean, and the apartment is bright and welcoming. Justin was such a delightful host, making sure we had everything we needed, from directions to great conversation. The value of this place is excellent, close to two subway stations to get you anywhere, and we felt very comfortable as guests here. I would say the neighborhood might not be everyone's expectation of Manhattan, but we really liked it - it's vibrant and real and we always felt safe. Seriously, stay with Justin and his roommate, they will do everything in their power to make your stay in Manhattan memorable and amazing!
