I stayed with Ellen for the month while I was doing a rotation in the Bronx. Her apartment is a 5 min walk from the 6 train and 10-15 from the 4/5/6. The place is very clean and she had lots of nice touches like coffee, iron, hair dryer etc. The room is small but average but New York standards and is good for longer stays if needed! Ellen is very pleasant and interesting to chat with. I even forgot my key a couple of times and she went out of her way to help.
