NYC is a fantastic metropolis whose districts, living in O'Dell's house, all reach an hour's full (downtown Manhattan in 40 minutes with the express line A).
With the $ 33 metrocard, take whatever means you want for a week. From the airport it is about 20 minutes, between airtrain $ 5 (payable at exit) from the terminal to the first metro station and then by metro to the stop close the O’Dell’s house.
For those who love to live the neighborhood, out of the confusion of the center, is the ideal home.
I suggest the metro is within a 5 minute walk, the neighborhood is absolutely quiet and safe at any time of the day.
The house is classically American, with three large and comfortable bedrooms, two living rooms, a kitchen equipped with all appliances (we also found fresh milk in the fridge on our arrival…), a living table from which you comes with six chairs, a bathroom upstairs (6 steps up from living) with tub and a downstairs bathroom (6 steps down from living) with washbasin and toilet.
We stayed at home for seven days in six person, including a 12-year-old baby boy and a nearly three-year-old girl, each having their own space.
O'Dell is a very nice person, there is everything in the house, iron, hairdryer, bathroom and personal hygiene products, spare bed linen, electric broom, bumper broom, towels and sponges for kitchen floor bathroom, You really just have to wear your garments.
The house is even bigger than we see in the photos and it is very clean (so we found it and so we left the house).
The top is the huge supermarket 20 feet from the house, all provided at much lower prices in Manhattan, open from 7am to 9pm, every day of the week (try the muffins, 1 pack of 4 to less than $ 2) .
O'Dell is a good and generous person: He waited at home on arrival with 3 hours late and allowed us to stay at home until 20am on the day of departure, given the delay of almost 5 hours of our plane.
Not pleased was offered to accompany us at the airport, basically loading all the luggage on his own car.
All this we had at an unthinkable price for NYC.
Finally, I can say that I have my home in NYC, hoping to return to it as soon as possible.
A dear greeting to O'Dell, hoping he comes to see us in Italy, what a pleasant guest.
