This is an ideal place to stay in New York. The street is quiet and safe. There are regular buses just a few minutes walk away, and the subway is a walkable distance or a short bus ride. The journey on the Bus + Subway to the centre of Manhattan takes about 30 minutes. The accommodation is comfortable and spacious and there is a useful shop at the end of the road. We didn't get to meet Jay (we had no need to), but all communication with him was quick and efficient. If we go back to NY we would definitely book Jay's place again.
