My friends had booked a room here for a week and I joined them for two nights. Rick moved a mattress into their room and let me stay at a very reasonable rate. The rooms face a very quiet street -- I've never slept this well staying in New York. In the morning Rick serves delicious breakfast with lots of... More

What a lovely place. Stayed there for three days, hated to leave. My room was beautiful, decorated with Rick's impressive artwork. Bed was comfortable, private bathroom brilliant white and spotless. Rick is an excellent host, expansive knowledge of the city, very gracious and accommodating. Breakfast was simple but delicious. Five minute walk to the subway. Quiet street--incredibly quiet for New... More

The house is warm, comfortable, stylish and full of stories and memories - just like host Rick Patrick. We'll definitely be staying there again if we're ever lucky enough to visit NYC a second time. Make My Cake's Red Velvet cake down the road on Adam Clayton Powell has got to be the best cake in the world.

We are just landing back from our NYC trip. We spend four days at this B&B, we did enjoy a lot. We learn from Ric, and we share good moments with him. Nice speaking sessions. The room is awesome, huge, peaceful and nice bed. So, what else could you ask for after a busy day in the big apple. All... More

What can I say that hasn't been said already? We stayed a week at Easter and were so glad we did. In such a lively exciting and tiring city as New York it is wonderful to start and finish your day in somewhere that feels like a home away from home. Rick is a charming, friendly and knowledgeable host who... More

Rooms are ample in size and the large en-suite with walk in shower was a delight. Rick, the owner, is a fantastic host with nothing being too much trouble. Rick serves up a... More
