Paulo and Seth were extremely hospitable and accomodating. We were given excellent directions to and from the city. The location was great for me.. Short walk to the train. They gave us their cell numbers in case we got lost (which we did, once). The room was comfy and cozy. Cleanliness is always a concern of mine, but I was immediately put at ease. The room, bathroom, and the whole apartment was well kept and clean! Hope to be as lucky to stay with them again during my next trip to NYC.
