The hosts were very thoughtful in the layout, furnishing & lots of little touches that made the apartment good for guests. Especially the kitchen, it was well stocked with cooking utensils, pots & pans, with coffee, tea, sugar, salt, spices, etc. The best thing was that the refrigerator was well stocked with bagels, eggs, sausage, butter, etc. Our main objective was to be close to the airport with 3 beds. The location was very convenient to the airport, taxi fare was $10.50. However, it is in a older, not so kept neighborhood, in an old, a little rough building. I would not feel comfortable walking through the neighborhood at night alone. However, the owners have worked hard to make the unit itself secure and clean and welcoming. We were 3 men staying overnight for a layover in JFK, and it suited us fine. I would not use this place traveling with my family. The owners did a great job of communicating.
