I stayed here with my mom for a week and it was a wonderful experience! The apartment was super clean and stocked with the essentials. It’s also very roomy and bright, exactly as pictured. Only half a block to the subway, and there is a sizable supermarket one street up, as well as a few good delis and a bakery on the neighboring streets. The neighborhood was pretty quiet, street noise was never an issue.
We never felt unsafe walking around the area. Just be smart and aware of your surroundings.
From JFK, you can easily take the AirTrain to the subway, then get there with just a couple of transfers - much cheaper than an Uber/Lyft and really simple. That trip (one-way) also only took us about an hour and 15 mins total. It’s only about a 20 minute subway ride to Midtown.
All around it was a really cool place. I would absolutely stay here again!
