Jillian had been very kind since the beginning and during the long stay over a month. There is a big shopping mall near the apt. containing several super markets, that supposed to be convenient especially for the one who will stay in NY more than a week. It is 10 mins-walk distance to the MTA station (116th station) of the No.6 line which is connected to Brooklyn Bridge via mid-town and downtown, that must be convenient for everyone.
