James was a great host and his place was very clean and in a nice area. We flew in LGA and his place is about 30 minutes from there. Lots of bodegas in walking distance and if you are driving there is parking available in both the driveway and the street (yes, even on weekends). The security cameras are visible at both the front and back entrances. The shower was hot and had good water pressure and there is a full kitchen available for use if needed. There are windows throughout the basement if you want fresh air or natural light and the bed comfortably sleeps two. Very easy check-in and check-out. Overall great stay!
