Caroline's house was clean and spacious. One thing we found uncomfortable was that the house did not have curtains and was really bright in most times. Her house had basic cookery so we could cook in the house. I and my friend usually drove in the city and did not have chance to take the metro. But my friend said that it was directly connected to major sites such as Union Square. Neighborhood was not intimidating and bar downstair was great! (Try Bronx Pale Ale!). Thank Caroline for letting us to stay in your house!
