Joe was a great host. He made us feel very welcome, explained everything and helped with getting into the place and everything else and was helpful and reachable in case we needed his assistance. The place was super charming, clean, lots of space, very good atmosphere. It's even better than in the pictures. You should definitely stay with Joe, if you're in NYC and want to check out Manhattan. The public transport is great. I used to live in NYC for a year and his area is a quiet one but still close to the city. It's just a great place (and host) to stay with.
