Tom and Lily are two of the most welcoming people I've had the pleasure to stay with - Starting from about a week before your arrival, they will make sure all is set, and make sure you have everything you need throughout your stay there (even if they happen to be out of town.. Camping!). The loft is clean and decorated tastefully, and the neighborhood is beautiful and safe (even when you walk the 2-3 blocks from the subway at 2am).

Would definitely come back next time I'm in town.
