Joyann is an excellent host and her home was perfect for our group. Each bedroom is a good size and has its own AC unit which kept us cool. The house is only about a 10-minute drive from JFK airport, and a 7-minute drive to Green Acres Mall, which has lots of shopping options. When we went into Manhattan, we parked at Laurelton station, just 5 minutes away, and took the LIRR to Penn Station. Joyann responded quickly to our questions. She also extended herself by setting up the backyard area with additional tables and chairs, lighting, and coolers, when we asked if we could celebrate my in-laws' anniversary with a gathering of friends. This was more than we expected and we had such a wonderful evening eating and playing games!
