Our stay at Martyn and Julie's place was comfortable and awesome. Besides the cosy studio-like 2nd storey room that is complete with private washroom and kitchenette, the location is just a 5 min walk to the nearest Subway station (fresh pond station). Simply love the design of the house, the colour combinations and plants.
Just note that the subway ride to Manhatten is about 40 min, which we found was reasonable for the price paid. There are also cafes, laundromat etc nearby. Be sure to visit Milk & Pull cafe which Julie recommended us!
Our hosts were very friendly and engaging, while giving us the space we needed. They checked in several times via text during the stay to make sure things were good, and were very prompt in replies and giving us help when needed. So glad for the great airbnb experience! We will definitely book with them if we return to NYC. :)
