Marvin's house was very comfortable for our family of 6 people during a 10 day vacation trip in NYC. The place is spacious, clear, tranquil, very clean and cozy, we were able to cook and wash clothes almost every day, basic supplies for bathrooms and kitchen were in place and could replace them easily. The location is truly 30 min away from Times Square using train 1 and the station is close by. Given this scenario, the communication needed with host was minimal, however they always responded quickly and kindly. Neighbors were very kind and cleaned our sidewalk and front yard after a snowstorm, we definitely will come back some day...!
