It is fully equipped with dishes, pots and pans, blender, coffee maker, toaster, large stove / oven and refrigerator. All linens, bath towels, body soap, shampoo and conditioner are included. The common area and bathroom is shared with the host only The printer is accessible over WiFi with most devices for guests needing to conduct business I offer TV with local channels and your room is equipped with Netflix, HULU, and free high-speed WiFi. There is no mess or clutter because I like to keep things simple. I'm an empty-nester as my only son graduated from NJIT university, found his own flat and started a new career at Tesla. NOTE: Bed size is a standard U.S. Queen Size (80 inches X 60 inches = 203.2 CM X 152.4 CM) I am a 55 year old man who is very friendly, sociable and happy to host. As a former Airbnb manager I have gained lots of experience hosting (Se habla Español). It really is a home away from home and you will always be treated as family. With plenty of local transportation just 1.5 blocks away you can travel to New York City Port Authority Bus & Subway Terminal (also known as Times Square & 42St). From there the sky is the limit as to where you can go in NYC..... 42nd Street (Times Square), Empire State Building, One World Observatory, Intrepid Air & Space Museum, Central Park, Stature Of Liberty, 9/11 Memorial & Museum, Rockefeller Center, MOMA.... the list is endless! All points in Lower, Mid & Upper Manhattan On a nice day you can walk 25 minutes to the Port Imperial Ferry (Weehawken, NJ) which will take you to Wall Street/Pier 11 and so much more. Please visit nywaterway.com for fares, routes and schedules. Please note that currently the NYC Metro Card for subway/busses are not accepted on NJ Transit busses. NJ Transit passes (Flex Pass = multiple bus rides) may be purchased at Port Authority for use on any NJ Transit bus. These passes are offered at 20% discount versus paying cash on bus. Once here, I recommend the NJ & MTA Transit Apps which gives you up-to-the-minute New Jersey/New York Transit scheduling/tracking information to/from and within NYC/NJ Once you board the bus for NYC it usually takes about 20 -25 minutes from home, depending on traffic, to reach Port Authority NY. In NYC there are a variety of transportation options to take you to the 5 boroughs of Queens, Brooklyn, Bronx, Manhattan and Staten Island. If you just want to spend some time in our local area you'll find plenty of great restaurants and shopping in the immediate vicinity all within walking distance of home. The NJ Light Rail is located just several blocks from here if you fancy a trip to the Newport Center shopping Mall In Jersey City, Liberty Science Center or Liberty State Park. For folks attending events at Met Life Stadium in NJ, you're just 35 minutes from home via bus or 15 - 20 minutes by car. ** VERY IMPORTANT LOCAL AIRPORT INFORMATION: If at all possible I recommend traveling through JFK Airport (New York), LGA Airport (New York) or Stewart Airport (SWF) and AVOID NEWARK AIRPORT (EWR) because it is rated the worst airport in our area for public transportation. Starting October 2022 Newark (EWR) will be removed from the "NYC City Code" which means it will no longer be considered part of the NYC Airport System. The consequences may be higher prices all around, including with local transportation. It is currently very difficult and expensive to use any type of local transit when traveling from EWR to our surrounding cities and the recommended options for transportation is using UBER, LYFT or Taxi service PAYMENT: Balance due payment arrangements must be made immediately after completing booking by contacting the host. Balance can be paid via REVOLUT, Venmo, CashApp, Zelle, WISE or CASH upon arrival. PayPal not accepted at this time **Checks, Money Orders and Western Union are not accepted** No car service is provided. Thanks and Happy Travels!
