This is a wonderful place to stay if you're looking to explore NYC. The apartment itself is exactly as it appears in the listing; It's clean, well lit, gets a lot of sunlight for a garden-level, and has very comfortable furniture. The bed in particular was so comfortable that we found it hard to get up in the mornings. There's a nice little backyard patio, though it was so windy that we didn't really get to use it. In terms of location it's a < 5 minute walk to a metro station on the line to get to Manhattan. There are also several food options within 5-10 minutes' walk. And beyond the great apartment and location, the best part was Norga and his mom Linda, who were very welcoming and communicative the whole stay. They were even able to accommodate us checking in early on our arrival, though I think we got lucky with scheduling there. By the time we left, we were wishing we could just live here. Couldn't have been happier choosing this place.
