We arrived to JFK and were picked up by an Uber driver who immediately began telling me and my travel companion how dangerous the area we were staying in was, how we shouldn’t be staying there and that he didn’t even feel comfortable driving to the Bronx to drop us off. Immediately we were terrified of what we had gotten ourselves into, and arriving to the accomodation was the most pleasant surprise. Multiple door locks and a nice homely feel had us at ease. We had no issues walking the 10 minutes from the Subway station, or 5 minutes to the bus stop as described in the listing, often times after dark. Our room was tidy, very spacious and we were able to make ourselves at home for the stay. The common area was tidy, bathroom kept clean and had fresh towels for use of guests. Sound travels through the walls, windows and doors which we learnt quickly with the roadworks outside and when other guests partied outside our door. The roadworks didn’t start painfully early and was a good incentive to get out of bed and start the day. Overall a good stay! Hosts were easy to contact and responsive.
