Joseph and his daughter are amazing hosts--check-in was no problem--his daughter met us at the appointed time--great communication all the way through the process so we knew exactly when and how to check in. Great directions and met us at the door. The apartment is a fairly standard 2 bedroom apartment--well appointed, 2 Bedrooms, 1 beds in each room and a futon in the main room. The apartment is about .25 miles from an express subway stop on the #7 train (purple line)--If you are getting up in the morning to go into the city, there is a Dunkin Donuts on the way..which is super handy!! There are several restaurants and bars in the area near the apartment, but they are mostly locals places--fairly quiet. Overall this is a great location and the hosts are amazing!!
