At our New York visit we stayed at Min’s place and we immediately felt at home. Min was extremely welcoming and helpful with getting us to know all the good places around the area and in NY in general. She also was sincerely interested in what we did, why we were in the US, what plans we had while being in NY (so that she could help us out with good advices) and equally interested in letting us get to know her. We loved the room and the neighborhood with all its small cafes.

We also very much loved our walks down to the park by the harbor with the most beautiful view over Manhattan Skyline one could imagine. But definitely not least we truly enjoyed the company of Min and her cute and friendly little dog Shatzi. We had long talks on American history and politics and we were introduced to some of Min’s friends, who were as welcoming as Min. We also got invited to her friend’s apartment one evening where he cooked a meal that was just SO good!

It was in every way such a wonderful Airbnb experience, the only thing that we want to mention as something to know before you go is that her close friend has an American pitbull terrier, Eva, and Min sometimes babysits it so that there on occasions are two friendly dogs tagging along with you from the room to the kitchen :).

Finally it is worth mentioning that even though it is just over the other side of the river from Manhatten, it is extremely easy to get around with four different Metro lines only 5 minutes away and the river ferry only 15 minutes away.
