Jasmine is a great host she left Dante in charge and he was fabulous, thank you Dante, I never meet jasmine and had the whole place to myself and that was a bonus if you like your own space. I had regular contact with Jasmine and we became friends instantly. Jasmine was prompt in her reply and helpful in every way to make sure I had all the information I needed. As a single traveller to New York I was a little apprehensive about safety and distances to train lines et. The place is in a great location and easy walk about 15 min to the subway. I would say it's has a bohemian feel. The cat monkey is great but very hairy and the hairs are a nuisance but her personality make up for it !! Great place to stay!!
