Being young and in New York for the first time, me and my friends were a little nervous about the stay. Raymond made us feel right at home and was very responsive whenever we needed something! The surrounding area could be safer, but we didn’t leave at night and stayed south of the location and didn’t run into any problems. The house itself feels very safe and the street it’s on is adorable. Overall could not have been happier at such a great price. I would definitely recommend this stay for families.
