The house is 10 minutes walking distance from the nearest subway station, from which it will take about one hour to get to Manhattan. It is also a 15 minute car ride away from JFK, which is why it is a convenient location to stay for a short duration if you need to catch a flight. What I appreciated about the host was that she left clear instructions regarding check in which is to be done with the keypad. The code is customised according to the person staying in the house at the time. My room was on the second floor,and also had a keypad lock. The furniture was basic and the room itself was clean. I was extremely impressed with the bathroom because it was spacious and was spotless. The bathroom is shared by occupants of three rooms on the second floor. The host is very responsive and understanding.
