The apartment was neat and modern and we had a pleasant stay. Using public transportation it took us about an hour to get to Manhattan. The Liberty Park ferry might reduce traveling time but we did not make use of it. The neighborhood felt unsafe to walk in, especially after dark and cars playing loud music in the early morning hours disrupted our sleep. Magda quickly replied to our queries, but we never met her. If you prefer a more personalised stay with interaction with your host, I would not recommend this apparent. There really was few problems with the apparent itself, but make sure that you are comfortable with the location.
