The room and the rest of the house were great, clean, were as advertised. I did a four week rotation at Staten Island university hospital. The house is within walking distance of the bus line that takes you within one block of the hospital, even for the times I had to be in the hospital 5:00 am. Marianne always made sure I had what I needed to have a comfortable stay. She even made sure that I was prepared for snow storms. The neighborhood is a safe, residential area and a nearby train and ferry takes you to Manhattan. There are also grocery stores and restaurants within walking distance.
