Shilo’s place is compact, but it has all you need as a base. I was flying out from Newark early the next day, and this place is about 2 minutes to Penn Station, taking you straight to Newark. It is up 2 flights of narrow stairs, but inside it feels really good. Shilo gives great instructions about getting in was really responsive to inquiries. Great host. This place is not expensive, and you more than get what you pay for.
