The hosts went up and beyond for us several times.
The house itself is located in a very cool little neighborhood close to JFK. All the houses on the street looked like they should be in an old English village.
As for the space itself, it would be best described as a spacious, well furnished, basement with lots of natural light and a separate entrance. Though isolated from the main house, you can hear kids and the dog from time to time during the day. At night, it’s perfectly quiet.
We were very comfortable here and drove to the city with no issues. Street parking can be tough everywhere in NYC, but we managed to get spots next to the house every time we came back.
This place was a great value, and we felt lucky to have found it.
