We have stayed twelve days at Felami’s home. She and her friend, Danielle, are really attentive. They were in touch with us all the time, taking care of our needs. The apartment was perfectly neat and it had everything we expected.
The neighborhood is really quiet, especially at night. The downstairs supermarket is well stocked and fairly priced. Nonetheless, there is a major shopping center, called Atlantic Avenue, 7 blocks away. Inside, there is a Target, the possibly biggest Best Buy in NY, and another inexpensive supermarket.
The building is conveniently located 3-4 blocks away from several subway stations. It is possible to go to JFK Air Train with almost any effort (although it took us 1-1,3 hours to get there). Just pick the Q line 3 blocks away from the apartment, walking downhill. Descent the stairs (that’s the only heavy task). Then, change to the R line in “De Kalb” station (you only need to cross the platform, no stairs). Finally, change to the E line in Queen Plaza, crossing the platform once more (no stairs, again). The subway will take you to the AirTrain. It is ideal for those travelling in a budget and carrying heavy luggage. Besides, it is the safest means of transport to get in time to the airport.
