Martha is a very seasoned host. Her remarkablr courtesy, her professionalism in connecting to you before, during and after your trip will enrich your world with a person of exception.It won't take long before you notice her humanity, thoughtfulness, solicitude and willingness to ensure that yours is altogether a smooth stay in New York City and and a seamless experience of charming borough of Staten Island.
The excitement my guest from Ireland and I had of traveling to and fro her place is on par with the tremendous memory we keep of her.
Heed her people: Pat - the husband - Mia & Rickie, the lovely dogs. All in her home rings peace, and you will want to rush back to them and their place as soon as you checked out because they effortlessly extend to you the invaluable benefits of welcome, hospitality, candor and tolerance.
Because of them, you won't mind the 60 minutes commute from Staten Island to NYC. The local SIR train [a 30 minutes leg from Great Kills strain stop from Martha's address at a nominal train fare to the free-of-charge St George Staten Island Ferry which constitutes another 30 minutes leg over the Hudson River] while bound NYC is nothing short of a treat as you enjoy the sights of NYC's skyline and - icing on the cake - a wondrous passby sight of Lady Liberty perched on Ellis Island en route to your other tourist destinations.
No matter what time of the day you get to walk back from Great Kills train station to Martha's place, you will likely feel as safe as we felt.
As a closing note, I'm plotting another stay at this place with my qualifying family members.
To Martha:"Thanks" is a word that falls short from capturing all our cordial gratitude to you and yours.
