I've stayed here for 1 month. Everything was fine. The host is really nice. And he has an adorable cat and a dog outside.
The house is quite old but he is so clean and considerate about guests. In the kitchen, everything's there. Guests just need to cook. Also, there is a laptop which guests can use.
There are two subway stations near the house. It takes around 10 minutes to get there by walk. it's not that close to midtown of Manhattan but every time express subway's running so you could take it.
I really recommend this place to stay!
