My stay in Joy's apartment was wonderful and I'll hope stay at her place again when my daughter graduates NYU around the summer of '19. Joy's apartment suited my needs perfectly. Three minutes walking to my daughters apartment, 10 minutes walking (safely) to both the subway to Manhattan and to convenience, grocery and liquor stores, as well as to my favorite (Lo Duca) pizza place. :) I felt safe and very comfortable, the amenities and little "extras" Joy caringly had for me were perfect, and she was super responsive to my every little need. Joy is a great host. She has really put a lot of time and thought and work in to making her apartment a great place to stay when in town and she has succeeded. I recommend Joy and her apartment very highly!
