My one week stay at Greg's apartment was great. Although we only saw each other once, Greg was very nice and helpful and could always be reached on the phone. He also made sure to check in via texts whether everything was fine or if I needed anything.
The house is obviously an older building which could benefit from a renovation, but everything was clean and comfortable.
The location and neighbourhood of the apartment was very nice. Lots of good places to eat, a short walk to the East River with an amazing view of the Manhattan skyline. The subway is only a few blocks away and you can reach Manhattan and connecting lines to the rest of NYC quickly. I also felt very safe in the neighbourhood - also at night, which was very important to me as I was travelling by myself.
I can only recommend Greg and his apartment and would definitely stay there again when in NYC.
