Fernando's place is very spacious compared to other places I've stayed in near Manhattan. It was super clean and Fernando was helpful and let me know I could reach out if I needed anything. He checked in every few days to make sure everything was okay!
It takes a while to get into Manhattan, about an hour, but for the price the trek is worth it. The neighborhood is quiet and feels safe, and it's only about a 5 minute walk to the 7 subway. There are grocery stores and restaurants nearby as well.
There is a very nice TV set up with Roku and cable as well. No kitchen, but there is a fridge, microwave, and Keurig for coffee. Also very important to me--- actually hot water and good water pressure in the shower.
Another plus of this place is that it is very close to LGA-- only about 5-10 minutes driving.
I personally didn't mind, but it is a basement apartment which means you can hear upstairs neighbors moving around, which might bother some people. Also, the ceilings are low, so if you are over 6 ft. tall you might have to duck. Those are the only negatives I can think of, though! Loved staying here!
