Brian was a stellar host! You could not find a better host, nor a better setup! The apartment was lovely and clean, but most importantly: it was 2 blocks from Times Square! It was spectacular! Brian himself was a champion. He is very nice and is pleasant to talk to. He had stellar advice about Broadway shows, local restaurants and was able to give directions around the city remarkably well! We asked him where a post office was at one point and without hesitation he gave us the address of two different post offices and helped us figure out which one was most convenient in relation to what our plans were after it. We will definitely be staying with Brian again sometime!
