Petra has a very tastefully decorated well cared for and spacious apartment. plenty of living, relaxing, area with a very useful fully equipped kitchen and shower/bathroom. A 5 minute walk to the subway or bus is very handy for getting downtown quickly. For NY first timers like us that 5 minute walk is "interesting". It is in the Bronx, so, your expectations should factor that in, We found it noisy at all times of the day, shouting, loud music, but what matters really is night time when you are trying to sleep. Because of the aircon on the windows it is not possible to close them completely so the street noise is always there. Ear plugs are essential.
