Barbara is super friendly and accommodating and her home is the perfect base for a weekend in New York! The bedroom is clean and the bed is comfy - especially after a long day of walking around the city. May be useful to note as others before us, that the bathroom is a lot older than the pictures make out but everything still works perfectly fine! Finally want to say a HUGE thank you to Barbara for meeting us in the city when we were back another weekend as my husband left a coat behind. She went out of her way to get this back to us which we REALLY appreciate. Would recommend staying here for your next trip to NYC!
