Linda's apartment is a great place for a family with 2-3 kids. Our kids really enjoyed the toys that were provided. The location is quiet but also near many restaurants and stores (in Flushing--so mostly Asian restaurants and groceries). It is near a bus stop that can take you to the Metro and get you anywhere in NYC. It took us a little over an hour to get to downtown Manhattan. This area is especially convenient for accessing either of New York's airports--about 20 minutes' drive to either.
