Loved our stay! Paul is warm, responsive, full of local tips, and genuinely happy to have us guests around. And yet unobtrusive — never had to compete for the bathroom (I was worried about the shared bath beforehand), and I always felt like we had complete privacy when we needed it.
Location cannot be beat; just two minutes to Barnard and Columbia and the subway. Easy to hop on subway to get to Broadway shows too.
Parking was free and fairly easy, and I was always able to park within a block or two. I only had to move my car once to avoid street cleaning.
On 8th floor so quiet and bed is a comfy; we slept like babies.
We enjoyed Paul and his home so much we feel like we have a family member in the city and plan to be back!
