Jason and his mum were wonderful hosts and showed best hospitality you can expect on a trip. The place itself is great value for a solo traveller. The neighborhood felt safer than I expected and the house had easy access to the metro station (G line, 5~8 min walk). I had a wonderful time staying and I am confident in saying that it is one of the best places for value around central NYC. I would definitely recommend to people visiting NYC on their own and I myself would stay here during future visits.
