The host is great. Very helpful and there for you whenever. The room has everything you need, can get bit hot though. I stayed in the summer so it might be different in another time of the yearAround a 7 min walk to the subway, 25 min subway ride to the first stop in Manhattan. So if you’re willing to wait that out to go to the city, then so be it. The neighborhood itself it’s pretty residential. Some restaurants around but nothing too exciting. I will say this room and bathroom might be more difficult/annoying for a bigger/taller person.
