The place is cosy and clean. The neighborhood is residential and the house is close to a bus stop. However, if you're new to New York and want to do all the touristy things, it's pretty far away from Manhattan. I think that next time I'd rather pay more and stay closer to Manhattan than stay far away and travel so much.
The bathroom had shampoo and body wash but most of it was empty and you have to have your own toothpaste. So make sure to carry these things with you.
