I only spent one night at Win’s home. His place was exactly as described and looked in the pics. The place was tidy. The neighborhood is vibrant with restaurants and other food places within blocks and the subway is only 12-15 mins walk away. I had an early 9 am meeting in Manhattan; I walked to the subway and then the 7-train took me to Manhattan within 20 mins. Also Win’s wife was very helpful and nice; she helped me with directions and was very patient through out. She also gave me an extra metro card that she had, which saved me a buck (it may only be a buck but the gesture itself is worth thousands). And oh, how could I forget his mom! I noticed that she wasn’t good in English, but she has such a pleasant disposition; she would smile every time our eyes meet and she was up
to bid be farewell when I left. I had a pleasant stay.
