Ibrahim’s place is pleasant, and quiet. It is definitely place where it seems peace and quiet is preferred, if that’s your thing then great. The bedroom it seems is the only place to really hang out. Public transport takes about 45 mins to get downtown, obviously New York is expensive so for what your paying this could be a viable option. We were also not opposed to walking a few miles to get to where we are going. Ibrahim is a great host and I could only say good things about him.
