Nadya was a great host. She (and her dogs) welcomed me warmly at check in and always replied fast. I was provided with extra blankets and a heater as it is getting colder now. There are two bathrooms so I never had to wait in the mornings. The ride to Manhattan by bus and ferry takes at least 45 minutes but is very scenic. If I were to come back to New York I would stay with Nadya again.
