Doug and his family are very friendly and pleasant people, and they made me and my husband feel at home. They even had a complimentary bottle of wine in the kitchen, and baked cookies for us! The apartment was really clean and warm, and it was walking to distance to Rite Aid pharmacy, a number of food places, the subway station, and convenience stores. The neighborhood felt safe, and we had no problems with anything during our stay, and were able to get to and from Manhattan easily.
