Joe's apartment is great and Joe is a very nice host! I really enjoyed staying at his place. He is willing to explain everything, tell you something about living in Manhattan and is very fast with answering all the questions you might have. The apartment is not huge but clean, convenient and quiet. The rooms was nice, had a huge bed, airco and a lockable door. I especially enjoyed having breakfast and dinner on the rooftop, because of the amazing view from up there! The apartment is located very close to the L-train subway station (1st ave) and in a nice and lively neighborhood. There is a cheap deli across the street where you can buy amazing bacon,egg&cheese rolls. There are several laundromats located close to the apartment, which are convenient to use. I will definitely come back!
