Natsuko and Raoul immediately made me feel welcome upon my arrival. Their place was very clean and in pristine condition, just like the pictures they posted. Their apartment is very centrally located right next to the subway station. You can get just about anywhere within Manhattan and Brooklyn within 30 minutes by train. Raoul was helpful in suggesting points of interest. Natsuko and Raoul are both very hospitable and welcoming. They made me feel comfortable as if I were at home. Will definitely like to stay with them again when I come back to NYC.
