Arkady and his wife were extremely nice host. The place was very nice and clean and as described and was about a 10 minute walk to Branch Brook Park light rail that took us to Newark Penn station where we caught a train to NYC. There were areas of Newark that looked sketchy and unsafe, but this neighborhood felt pretty safe. I left my car parked in front of their house all 3 days we were there and we took train every where we went. For the money, I would definitely stay here again.
