Tranquil Haven is a great place to stay when you have a layover near JFK. It is indeed a tranquil haven. Although, just 10 minutes drive from the airport (even during the morning rush hour) there is virtually no airplane noise. The house is in a quiet, residential neighborhood, with minimal street noise as well. The flat is beautifully and comfortably decorated, immaculate, and cozy. The bed is super comfy and the shower pumps out hot water at any time. Sharon was very responsive, even when I absentmindedly contacted her very early in the morning (when I was jetlagged and forgot what time it was). After an evening that turned suddenly cold, Sharon came downstairs to make sure all her guests were warm enough. Well equipped kitchen for those who want to cook. I can't recommend this place highly enough.
