This is one hell of a value location! It is relatively safe, being within the vicinity of St. John's University. The only thing you need to know is that quite a walk or bus would take you from this place to the nearest subway. But the place itself has lots of food places nearby, even a 24 hour Dunkin Donuts shop!
The place is clean and if I am not mistaken, the bath tub is working (yes, a bath tub!)!
