Norman gave us a quick tour of his home before we decided to go ahead and book the reservation. It was ultimately a great decision b/c Norman was a great host! My friends and I stayed at his place to celebrate New Year's Eve. Even though we had music on throughout the night, there were no problems with noise coming out of the house. Norman's place was clean and there was more than adequate linens in every room. Norman was also very accessible and easy to work with - we met in Manhattan to exchange the house key. We accidentally forgot to follow a few steps in our check-out but he was very kind about the mis-steps!
