Mark and Deena are excellent hosts. The apartment far exceeded our expectations and was very homely. Mark and Deena were friendly and approachable and were forthcoming with travel tips and advice on getting around and were quick to respond to any queries that we had. The apartment is just a short walk from grocery shops and there are good transport links to Journal Square station, where there are frequent trains to/from Manhattan. Although it is just as easy to take an Uber or cab to/from the station.
