Perfect airbnb stay, when you need a place close to JFK. My flight arrived at 8pm and couldn't fly home til the next day. Great alternative to an airport hotel. You will stay in Claudette's completely private, well-furnished, very clean basement where there is a refrigerator (stocked with cream cheese and bagels, milk, water), bathroom (with hairdryer, soap, shampoo, lotion), TV, A/C and heater, comfy bed, etc. She provides a folder with helpful sight-seeing and order-in dining suggestions. I don't think the train stop into Manhattan is a very far walk away, but I didn't go into the city, so I can't speak to this 100%. To get there, there is the Q3 $2.75 bus where it stops a few blocks away or you can take an Uber. She told me a previous guest was charged $12 for the 10 minute drive to her house; however, I caught an Uber around 8:45pm and it was more. The Uber had quoted me $18 but by the time I got the receipt, I had been charged $25.98 by Uber, so beware of this is all I am saying. I currently have a complaint in with Uber to understand why the fare changed. Overall, I do think Uber charges more during night trips. Hope all of this info helps! Claudette was very friendly and will book with her again!
