Mary and Josh were wonderful hosts and we found their apartment to be great value for NYC. Much more reasonable than staying in Manhattan and public transport to and from Manhattan was straightforward and convenient. The apartment itself is on the third floor of a brownstone which was lovely. Mary has great style. It was extremely clean, quiet, and relaxing. I would highly recommend it. Communication with the host was great and there's a lock box for self check-in if Mary/Josh aren't available when you arrive (they were for us). Do note that the wifi signal isn't strong on the third floor so don't rely on it if you need fast internet.
