I stayed with 3 girlfriends at Joanna's house in August 2014 for 4 nights. The house is perfectly located just a couple blocks from Union Square. You have access to several subway lines, a Whole Foods, Trader Joe's and a ton of restaurants, bars all within a few blocks - can walk to anything you need. The house is huge. There's a well stocked kitchen with a big table on the first floor, along with an office/den that has a private bath. The middle floor is a massive living/dining area. The top floor has a big master bedroom with the most comfortable bed ever. Joanna is very sweet & accommodating to all your needs. She left us some food & coffee in the kitchen & even bought us gluten free granola when she found out some of us couldn't eat wheat! She was very responsive to all our inquiries as well. I highly recommend her house. It's very spacious & you will feel like you are at home. Joanna is a great hostess!
