This house is a perfect place to enjoy a stay with family and visit NYC on day trips, or do other things in the area. The free & fun, Scenic Staten Island Ferry into NYC make it a very affordable way to see NYC on a road trip, be able to park your car free and safely, and save a lot in luxurious accommodations. Paula is an incredible host, and I say this as someone who has hosted an Airbnb vacation home myself for 5.5 years now & has stayed in probably more than 100 Airbnb’s all over the world over the years with my own travel. I’ve rarely encountered a host (myself included) who provided so many thoughtful touches, like a set of adorable, warm knitted slippers! The place has everything I think one could need while traveling and more, and believe me, I’ve spent years trying to think of everything guests might need or like to have for a family stay. The historic but fully modernized home is just beautiful to be in, and I couldn’t recommend it, & Paula as a host, more highly.
