Orestes was welcoming and a good host. We were very grateful for the phone calls that he made on our behalf to sort out some coach tickets and he suggested places of interest to visit.

The room is large and comfortable with a microwave and cups for that all-important cup of home-made tea or coffee. The bathroom is next door to the bedroom and the shower lived up to the expectations that we had read about in previous reviews!

This is a great location, very close to the subway and only a few stops from the heart of Manhattan. The neighbourhood feels like a safe, quiet residential area with a good selection of cafes and diners which are cheaper than the city centre. This was a secure and friendly base from which we enjoyed a great time in New York.

Thank you, Orestes!
