The apartment was spacious, clean and well equipped to handle an extended stay in the city. The neighbourhood has all necessities, including a large grocery store, a coffee shop around the corner from the brownstone and lots of fast food restaurants, including Chinese, pizza and typical burger places.

Two subway stations (A and C lines) are within quick walking distance, with the "Nostram" station being a better option than Kingston-Throop (A is the express train that gets into Manhattan faster, and it stops at Nostram).

The hosts were friendly and very accommodating!
