You get what you pay for. We were glad to find an affordable place to stay. The surrounding neighborhood and the condition of the home was better than I expected. However, parking was hard to find, the entrance was dark, and you need to take at least 2 trains to get to NYC. If possible, avoid staying in room #1, which is located on the first floor and opens to a common kitchen/living room area shared by other guests. Our bathroom, which didn't lock from the outside, was advertised as "private" but was obviously used by other guests.
