First off, Lou was a awesome host. My friends and I got into NYC early than expected and even though check-in clearly said 3PM. Lou had the keys waiting in his lockbox for us to make ourselves at home so we wouldn’t have to be out in the cold. Our stay felt like home and Lou made it a priority to check in on us every morning to make sure we were alright with everything. The location was perfect for us with a family dollar at the end of the street to stack up on small groceries if need be. If you are on a budget. Uber or Lyft will cost you around $40-$50 to go into the city unless your less than 2 guest then it’s about half the price. There is other ways of transportation to take you into the city that’s way less but depending on the weather. I would just go with the Uber. Plenty of space with plenty of sleeping areas. This is my first time using air bnb and I’m glad that my stay was here at Lou’s place. If you get to meet his wife as well. She is such a sweetheart and also made sure that we had everything we needed to make our stay a positive one. If you are looking for a safe, comfortable place. Look no further.
