My friend and I had a great stay with Kristine. She was super friendly and the place was clean and nice. I would recommend staying with her if you're looking for a conveniently located place to stay and the neighborhood felt safe walking through at night. She also was kind enough to provide us with umbrellas and taxi numbers. If you're looking for variety and location this would a great place for you, you have little Italy, soho, the Brooklyn and Williamsburg bridges and the subway within walking distance.
