First and foremost, Layla and Eddie were the best! I couldn’t have hoped for a better first time experience with Airbnb! This is a lovely basement apartment that is very homey with a cottage feel. Basement means lower ceilings, I had plenty of head space in shower , but not at bathroom sink- I’m 6’ tall lady. The rest of apartment, aside from entry, offered plenty of head space for me. The bus stop is across street, but my daughters and I took Uber to Mets-Willis Station, Subway 7 train into NYC (Roosevelt and Main is closer but very congested, your Uber ride will be faster to Mets-Willis) that being said, UberX ride for four cost anywhere from $10.18-13.18+ plus tip. (We visited 7/21-7/26) Round trip Subway for four to Time Square is under $25. Ride the 7 express if you can- 35/45 mins, 7 local, well, long ride. One way taxi from Empire State Building to apartment cost $49. Sal’s pizza was quick, less then a block walk. We felt safe at apartment and the few neighbors we saw, were friendly. Thank you Layla and Eddie for your kindness, attentiveness and taking care of us to the airport on departure day! My girls ❤️NYC and we would love to stay with you again!
