My daughter and I enjoyed our first trip to New York City and stayed a week. We felt like we were at home from the minute the door opened. The room was our private space but the common areas of living room kitchen and bath were always available and we felt so comfortable. The bed was incredibly comfy...like crazy good night sleeps! We came and went at crazy hours and never had any problems walking from subway at any hour home. Great people in the area helped us as they could tell we needed it at times (with directions etc). We connected so well with our host that we will definitely go back and only stay here. Like going home.. Seriously amazing kind fun hosts. 5 stars
