Staying at Mamadous's was such a blessing. I really enjoyed my stay. I felt like I was in my own home. When I got to the home, Mamadous's wife met me and she was so kind and gracious. When she greeted me, she was holding her baby in her arms. Though she had her baby in her arms, she offered to help me with my luggage. I thought that was so kind of her. I was fine with my luggage. I fell in love with the apartment. I had full use of the entire downstairs. The apartment was very clean and transportation in the area was super. It was easy to get from point A to Point B. I would definitely stay there again when I visit New York again. If anyone needs a place to stay while in New York this is the place. Thank you again Mamadou. Lorenzo G
