Overall we were pleased with our stay. Eva Maria was an excellent host and communication was very good. The property is very well located for transportation into Manhattan and therefore very convenient. Furnishings are comfortable but modest although the kitchen is well equipped. There are local shops nearby but we did not spend much time in the neighbourhood or the house itself which is immediately adjacent to a very busy road in a very lively area. If you are looking for a quieter residential area this is probably not for you.
