The place was spacious and comfortable. The location felt safe and was near a subway station. It took about 30 minutes by subway to get to downtown Manhattan, which was okay for us. It has plenty of parking space on the street if you have a car. All in all, it was just right for our family of 4 and for being in a quite neighborhood away from all the hustle and bustle of downtown, while still being able to go sightseeing everyday .
