Do yourself a favor and stay at this house. Stop looking right now, and just book it; you will be far beyond pleased. Also, this is TRULY the best deal when it comes to financing your trip. Both my friend and I came in under budget, in of all places, New York. If it wasnt for this house in this neighborhood, we would have spent so much more in expensive restaurants in Manhattan, with food that would have just been ok. If you want a real New York experience in an old neighborhood like the one you grew up in, this is the place. Safe, quiet, families on the same street, and above all friendly and helpful people everywhere we went. No exceptions; every last person we met was kind to us. Even when we came in late at night after seeing live music (near 2am) we still felt safe walking the streets of this Bronx neighborhood. This was pretty important since we were two girls on our own. Tom & Marina are outstanding people, and made us feel more than welcome. Everything was close by, just as promised. Tom & Marina, we had a great stay with you. The house is beautiful, immaculately clean, and a great neighborhood. We loved that your neighbors were so friendly, and came to chat with us outside. And Vito's deli up the street? Well, let's just say that we loved it so much, I want to get married there! Everyone was friendly, everything we needed was less than three blocks, and taking the 6 train couldnt have been easier. We saw everything, did everything, we ate, we drank, we laughed, we cried (from laughing so hard). From start to finish, you made this hands down the BEST TRIP and FAVORITE VACATION my best friend have ever been on, and we have traveled quite a bit. We both got back home and missed the house, we missed the neighborhood, and we missed New York City. Tom & Marina, words couldn't thank you enough for your hospitality & kindness, and giving us a warm, safe place to call home while we were there.
