This spacious, bright first-floor of a house is wonderful value for a larger group or family visiting New York. It's a 10-minute walk from the end of one New York subway line (the 5) in a quiet residential neighbourhood. The train takes about 45 minutes to midtown Manhattan, and runs all the way to Brooklyn . Clint (who lives with his family and dog upstairs) was very welcoming. We parked on the street for the duration of our stay for free. Some members of our group couldn't get home by subway late at night and took a cab. Light sleepers might become aware of active children upstairs (in the evening and morning) or in cold weather the sound of hot water pipes that heat the house.
