I can’t say enough good things about Semih and his place. Semih was very friendly and accommodating to our needs. He even lent my wife a jacket when the weather got too cold. His place was great, and in very lovely neighborhood. Lots of places to eat. Drugstores and groceries are nearby as well. Very close to the train station at Gates Avenue. Most of Manhattan is just one 30min train ride away. The guest room we stayed at was very cozy. Bed was extremely comfortable as well. We didn’t even get to use the common TV area because the wifi was fast enough for our Netflix needs using my laptop, so at night, we’d just stay in the room and watch Netflix there. The private bathroom in the basement looks like it was newly renovated as well, everything was nice and clean. Water pressure is really god as well, for those of you who need a good strong hot shower. Again, I can’t say enough nice things about Semih and his place. Would book his place again, when we’re in NYC!o
