Joris was a gracious and attentive host. His place was huge for New York, and very affordable. Being outside Manhattan was fine by us as we got a great deal! Joris' place was clean, with all necessary amenities. He responded quickly to our questions and was extrenely helpful. I would (and will) be reccomending the apartment to anyone I know who's wanting to visit New York. There are easy subway connections to the whole of the city within walking distance and the neighbourhood feels lovely and safe. We thougroughly enjoyed our stay - thank you Joris!
