Staying at Nicholas place was the best thing that could have happened to us. He is such a welcoming, friendly and helpful host. We enjoyed talking and having diner with him a lot. Staten Island is a really good place to stay and we loved every single ferry ride to Manhattan.
In ten days in NY we travelled around a lot and it was great to have Nicholas answering all of our questions and feeling home after a long day in the big city. Hopefully we were not to stresful for him :)
We can suggest his place to every nice guest who loves to stay at a private place rather than in an impersonal hotel.
