Alex is an AMAZINGLY accommodating and thoughtful host. He goes above and beyond to make sure your visit to NYC is as smooth and as comfortable as possible. He truly is an amazing individual and warms you to what NYC has to offer. The place itself is cozy, but has everything you need for a comfortable vacation. It is located very close to transportation lines that will easily take you into Manhattan. Lovely food places nearby. Alex has the BEST recommendations on where to go and what to eat. He will even give you step by step directions on how to get somewhere and what to order. He really truly cares for each guest he hosts, and you can see it in every interaction you have with him. I have only positive things to say about Alex and his home. If you want to visit NYC for the first time, this is a lovely way to start (:
