This place is really cool and cosy. It's about a 15 min walk to the subway and it only takes 30 mins to get into Manhattan. Personally prefer staying a little out of the city as it's a little bit more chilled. There's a bbq restaurant round the corner called hometown bbq which I would highly recommend. Checkin in and out was smooth and it's only a half hour cab ride from JFK airport. The bathtub in the kitchen is also cool addition :)
