It is a 10 minute walk from the place to the subway. It is really in the center of Queens with A LOT of shops, supermarkets and places to eat nearby. You have a Target 30 minute walk away. The neighborhood felt extremely safe, also at night around 10/11 PM or early in the morning. Your own entrance from the back of the house which is very nice. I have never heard Harish or his family, no noise or loud music. You can only hear the occasional footsteps through the ceiling. It is a 30 minute subway ride to Times Square, so total of 40/45 minutes from door to Times Square. He gave me and my sister water upon arrivel which was nice. Also, Laundromat 1 minute walk from the house. Only thing I recommand is to give the space a thorough cleaning before the next guest, that was up for some improvement. Other than that, I would recommand Harish's place!
