The place was located 5 minutes walking distance to the Path train station. There were also many bars and restaurants that were in the area. There was actually a bar/restaurant PJ Ryan's directly across the street! We spent half the time in Jersey City and half in NYC. Overall we loved our stay with Bob and Francois, and would recommend their home to anyone traveling to NYC. Their place actually has 4 units, so inquire about each one to see what best fits you're needs. Thanks again Bob and Francois!
