Joseph is a truly marvellous person who goes to extraordinary lengths to help guests feel welcome, entertained and also confident in the city. My friend and I had four nights in Manhattan and we're thrilled with the location of the apartment due to transport links to downtown, Brooklyn & Yankee Stadium. Central Park and Columbus Circle are less than 5 mins away and Times Square is a very easy walk.
The room is charming with a pull out bed that separates in to two. The room had a fan which kept us cool enough during a very warm week. Joseph sleeps in the adjoining room which you must pass upon entry to the apartment and to get to the bathroom. This did not pose any issue to us and Joseph was very accommodating as we returned home late each night. Bathroom facilities are excellent and the bedroom is very sunny and just as shown in the pictures. For two people wanting a solid base from which to explore Manhattan and surrounding areas - I couldn't recommend Joseph's place more. Also, it took only 35 mins to get to Newark airport at the end of our trip.
Last word to Joseph who made us very welcome, who was a pleasure to chat to and who was generous (Joseph presented us a gift card for a great nearby food market).
I would love to return.
