Evelyn and Ana's place was just what we needed for a quick getaway to NYC. The lower level apartment in a duplex-type house in Jersey City was clean and spacious for the price. It was walkable to the PATH, which was what we were looking for. The area was a little grungy if you're not used to urban places, but seemed perfectly safe.
One thing to note is that the PATH train from Exchange Place to World Trade Center will be closed on weekends for repairs until December 2020. It caused some delays, but you get to take a free ferry across the river, which was almost a bonus if you're not in a hurry!
