This is an ideal location for a visit to New York City. Subway entrance is only 30 steps from the front door (takes you to downtown Manhattan or Central Park in 10 minutes). Lots of nice eating or (excellent!) coffee places nearby.
It is a nice house, with a very personal touch from the host. We felt very much at home, with all necessary conveniences available. Pleasant atmosphere, no luxury. Prior to our arrival, our host Karl communicated with us about a change in the accomodation arrangement: we were offered the master bedroom without extra charge. Problem very nicely solved, thank you Karl! Very friendly, helpful and communicative host. A paper with useful information and personal tips about what to do and see in NYC was handed out to us upon arrival. I would certainly recommend this place!
