This was perfect for what we needed. A serene haven away from the hustle and bustle of events at Union Square and yet only a $2.50 and 20 minute ride on the N- train - the stop for which is in next street about three minutes walk away. Area has lots of great restaurants (most with an Asian taste) and a handy grocery store. Flat has lots of room, is well equipped (inc complimentary wifi) and host was welcoming and helpful.i have already booked for a return trip at the beginning of June.
