The host was awesome. He helped us get home when we were lost in the NYC subway. The apartment was well supplied and lots of room for a family of 5. The apartment was spotless when we arrived. We enjoyed coffee every morning in a lovely garden. I would recommend to our firends. You noticed a new detail every morning. The NYC ferry system was only 10mins walking from the apartment. The ferry links all over NYC. You do not need to spend money on expensive river tours. Just download the NYC ferry app for tickets.
