Me and my girlfriend stayed here for 10 days. We loved it to stay at this place, the apartment was great and it looked as the photos. It's easy to find. The services are great, the kitchen is full upgraded, the bathroom had a fantastic shower/bath. The airco in summer is fantastic... and their is big television if you like watching movies or sports. Wi-Fi is working perfect, works perfect if you need last information about the city.
The public transport and supermarkets are nearby.
You can walk in 30minutes to the (free) ferry or have a 5minute walk to the train station that brings you in 10minutes to the ferry. From house to NYC is around 1hour travelling. You can use the Unlimited Metro Card also on this route.
We Travelled every day between Staten Island and NYC. Every day we could see the wonderful skyline of NYC and Liberty Island. This makes the trip in feeling much shorter ;)
