Gregory was a fantastic host and his home is lovely, spacious and welcoming. I study nearby at Columbia and despite this being a “shared” home, I had more than enough privacy and quiet to help me sludge through midterm season. I especially appreciated having Cody the cat by my side while I worked. Greg and his family are very friendly and will give you as much space as you need but easy to talk to if you want to socialize. As a commuter student, this will most certainly be my Plan A for when I need to stay in the city.
