We stayed at Skip place for several day, and it was a perfect experience. The place is close to the subway, if you take an express train you need 10-15 min to get to lower Manhattan. The area is safe and quite, and it's just about 3 min from the subway to the door. Skip's place is a classic house, the room is exactly the one that is on the picture. We had full access to the kitchen, which is well equipped and were able to cook our meals. Skip is a perfect host! He helped us all the time with all the questions we asked. The cats are very nice and friendly, they always came to meet us then we came home. Skip can tell a lot about the city, and the places to visit that can't be found in any tourist guides. Thank you, Skip! We will definitely come back! Already miss you, Luba and Andrei
