Ben and Alicia's place was a perfect cozy landing pad for our trip to New York. It is located on a major street so very close to the L train which takes you right to Manhattan. We also made it to Queens (ps1) super easily. Never more than 2 subway rides to get to anything.The neighbourhood had tons of great food options and Ben and Alicia were kind enough to provide a very detailed map of suggestions. We were sad we couldn't try more of them.
The apartment itself was spacious and clean and had everything we needed. Sadly it was a little too chilly this weekend to enjoy their garden. They were also kind enough to provide us with coffee supplies (there are also great coffee spots up the street).
They were super easy to communicate with and responded to any questions we had immediately. Getting into the apartment/"checking in" was also painless.
We would definitely stay here again!
