The location is just between the JFK airport and Manhattan which is great. In 40 minutes you can get anywhere by L subway train. The neighborhood is very safe even at night. Supermarket is at the subway station just 5 minutes walking. The place is big enough for two people and I am sure that third one could sleep well on the couch :) We had never seen or met Luz nor her family, but we were in touch by mobile phone. Luz was always ready to help us, but we had no problems to solve. I recommend this appartment especially if you will come by plane to JFK.
