Michaels place is nice. All tidy and clean, has even a real kitchen built in (all doe I’ve never used it). The area has just everything you need. Trains G / J are nearby, 5–10 minutes walk which is very nice. The only thing which bothered me a bit is that the room I have is kind of noisy due to the street just out front. There is a bus stop just down the room. Additional to that there are planes flying really low to land at JFK airport which is not far away. And You would hear the noise people make in the common area because the doors don’t keep the noise out. So to sum it up: If you are not easy with noise I don’t recommend it. But I’m a bit fragile when it comes to noise. It might not bother you...
