Staying at Shully's was a wonderful decision for our weekend trip to NY. It was the perfect size for my boyfriend as I to use as a home base. The place was in a residential neighborhood but within 5 mins walk of the 2 train and so easy to get where we needed to go, which was mainly the Bronx (Yankee stadium) and Brooklyn. The neighborhood was quiet and seemed quite safe. When we arrived we were met by Shully's husband to check us in and who had been going to find is a parking spot (though we ended up passing one on our way in and snagged it!). Both her husband and herself were very sweet and made sure we knew they were there is we needed anything. Her husband even knocked on the door late that first night because a car was parked in front of a hydrant and he wanted to make sure it wasn't us in case the person was towed.
All in all I have no complaints about our stay and it would be a pleasure to stay here again on a future trip.
