Excellent spot for our NYC getaway. We felt safe and comfy on the lower level of this apartment. We took the G train to Manhattan twice and once to Queens. It's an 2-3 easy block walk. Our first day we found parking on the street. When we had to move the car by noon the next day we used a lot at Dekalb and Thompkins. The gents there were kind and the rates were not bad at all, especially in comparison with the Boston lot we had used a few days earlier. There are 2 TVs. We used the one in the back room and it was perfect for what we required, Hockey Playoffs!
