A super find! we thoroughly enjoyed staying at the Studio Retreat and this quiet and safe neighbourhood. Easy access to and from JFK by bus (Q3 +Q111) for less than $3! we loved the bus rides and the friendly people on them. Try going into Manhatten using the Rockaway Beach Ferry...again from the Studio Retreat a couple of bus rides will take you. Quickest way to central Manhatten is walk to Rosedale train station, 20 minutes, and catch the LIRR to Atlantic terminal in 35 minutes. Experience NYC the authentic way, stay with locals! Stylish accommodation offering 5 star comfort and genuine hospitality. Airbnb doesn t het better than this!
