Simple, clean, spacious, quiet, secure
Though an extra 25 minute ferry ride (read your travel back, study a map) the quiet night's rest in a spacious room, with a lovely view of the harbor and the Statue of Liberty, and the peace of mind that my morning coffee is right down the hall and I can have it as strong as I prefer, was well worth it.
I might also add that I stayed there during NYC Marathon weekend and getting to sleep in till right before my start was pretty sweet. (Not to mention, post run, there is a great big bathtub for a relaxing soak). Great combo fora new PR.
Nicholas is personable, helpful, and makes one feel at home. The perfect host.
I'll stay again.
