Jon is an amazing host & his place in NYC was absolutely amazing!! It was immaculate, cozy and within walking distance of everything!! My husband was running the NYC Marathon & it was my first time in NY and Jon’s residence was an ideal location for that experience!!
Jon’s place is close to everything so we were able to walk to the Javits Convention Center to pick up our race bibs. On our walk back we ate at a delicious Thai/Vietnamese restaurant, Obao, in Hell’s Kitchen at Jon’s suggestion.
There are nice little touches that make you “feel at home.” Jon leaves his guests a folder of restaurant menus with suggestions of his favorites & an “how-to” manual for electronics in his home. He also leaves these delicious snacks in his fridge called ‘My Grandma’s’ bundt cakes that were so yummy! I felt guilty eating so many & wanted to replace them, but couldn’t find them in stores!
Jon’s home is also within walking distance of Rockefeller Center, Times Square & Broadway so were able to explore it all! Then we were able to walk to Central Park for the NYC Marathon the next morning!
Thanks so much for sharing your home Jon—you are a wonderful host & your home was beautiful & a lovely place to stay!!
Sincerely, Drs. Irma & Eric Gundayao
