We stayed with Stan (and Scout) for 6 nights while we visited with two different friends who live near by. The location is wonderful if you want to be on the Upper Westside. It's close to many restaurants, buses, and the subway. Stan is delightful and very helpful. The bedroom is clean and spacious and the bath is clean and cozy. Scout (the dog) is a sweetie. Thanks so much, Stan, for the wonderful accommodations and conversation. I can highly recommend staying with Stan if your travels take you to NYC.
