Staying with T was an excellent experience - truly a most gracious host.
For me, the host’s location was ideal for the sights of New York: practical shopping (REI), photographic art such as The ICP Museum, WhiteWall and Staley-Wise Gallery. Also, the Metro station is close by for citywide access.
Nearby is inexpensive dining: The Delicatessen toward Prince St and The Grey Dog on Mulberry St are recommended for lunches and breakfast. Little Italy would be my suggestion for dinner.
My thanks to a host who made me most welcome.
