Alexandra's apartment is located in a quiet and safe mostly-residential neighborhood in Long Island City. We were able to walk to and from any of 3 train stations from the apartment (though one is more ideal than the others, we had flexibility). The apartment was clean, included the basic amenities any family would need to use as a headquarters for a New York City vacation. Alexandra was available if we needed her, but we had all the privacy we needed. There is a grocery and restaurants close to the apartment should you need those during your stay. Staying here gave us a nice break from the noise of the City and a wonderful place to sleep well and rest up for the next day's adventure.
