Marilyn is a perfect host who made me feel like home when I was staying at her apartment. She is a person of a great hospitality, friendly and polite. My room was extremely clean and spacious, same bathroom. Marilyn lives in a very quiet and safe area, there were no issues when coming back home late at night. The nearest subway station 'Church Av." is just 3 minutes walk and it takes you straight to Manhattan! There are also plenty of markets nearby open 24 hours. T-mobile office is 5 minutes walk from Marilyn's and AT&T 10 minutes - you can buy there an American sim card if needed. I really appreciated a few water bottles and fruits in my room when I arrived.
Thank you very much Marilyn for your hospitality and generosity!
