Barbara was a fantastic host! Her family was very welcoming and we felt right at home. The neighbourhood is so beautiful and right next to prospect part which is definately worth a visit. The subway is a very short walk away which takes you straight into Manhattan in no time. When we come back to New York we will definately be searching Barbara's place again. Oh and the room was completely set up with a Tv, mini fridge, and wardrobe. They catered to our every need. Thank you Barbara!
