I had a great time staying at this place in Staten Island. I am sure that I will return at a later time. The room was clean, spacious and private. Own bathrom was a great plus and something you will NOT find in Manhattan at this price. Large kitchen and a very nice backyard.

The hosts are very friendly and helpful. They will help you to understand the public transport. They will explain the neighborhood and provide tips for any service you may need. Thank you Lynn for "Tony's Brick Oven"! The best pizza I have ever tasted.

There are several places nearby who offer food on an international scale in walking distance. There are convenience stores and relatively large supermarkets within walking distance.

There is some commute is you need to get to Manhattan but it is very pleasant. I stayed for one month and did not get tired of the ferry. It is so much more enjoyable to sit on the ferry than the subway. And when friday comes you might even enjoy a beer during the trip.
