Ana's home is a great place to stay in the Ironbound district of Newark. We stayed here to go into NYC for a few days. Newark Penn Station is about a mile away and then a 40-1hr ride into the city on the Path train. The train station could probably be walked to but it was an easy 10 dollar uber ride. This is a great spot if you're looking to visit the city on a budget. Additionally, it's an excellent spot if you are driving in, as you can park in the driveway and avoid tight NYC street parking.
This is also located very close to downtown Newark, near Rutgers and the Newark Art Museum and lots of good food.
The airbnb was extremely clean and cute with a lot of nice decorative touches. It was quiet at night and the gated driveway and lock system felt secure.
Ana was a very quick communicator and super flexible with us checking in early, as well. If we were to stay in Newark again I'd be happy to stay at Ana's!
