This was a great beach-town getaway place! Easy to access from the street, just a couple blocks from the beach and boardwalk, close to coffee, bagels, beer and wine bars, and just 3 blocks from the A-line train to Manhattan. (There's a ferry, too.) Melissa was super-responsive when I had questions and she had great tips for local transit and food options. Would do it again! Two cautions: the unit is on the second floor, and the stairs are somewhat steep - not for folks with bad knees! And, Rockaway Beach is in the approach for planes landing at LaGuardia, so if you're sensitive to noise, this isn't the place for you.
