We really enjoyed staying at Ali's place for 10 days. Its was clean and the beds were comfortable. The couch bed wasn't really comfortable. Its in a quiet residential area. The subway is 5-7 min walk and it was very convenient. Stores were really close too if we had to make a late night snack run. We had a 10 month old with us and we didn't have any problems with the stroller. We would have liked to have a cot for the baby, instead of the baby sleeping on the bed, but we made it work. At night, you can hear the train outside, starting around 3:30am, so if you are light sleeper, this might be a problem for you. Otherwise, overall I would definitely recommend this place to my family and friends.
