Staying at Doug's house while I was in New York was really nice. Besides being located in a very accessible area by subway from Manhattan or JFK airport and the neighborhood is full of restaurants and cultural attractions, the house itself is a special place! In the first floor of a tradicional red brick old building, it's cozy and clean.
And, as if it were not enough, Doug was a very very helpful hoster, giving me tips about food, transportation and shopping in the city.
I totally would stay there again when I come back to New York.
