I booked Asaf's apartment for my mom who was visiting NYC from June 25th, 2021 - July 17th, 2021.
Since my mom has Parkinson's disease and limited mobility, this garden apartment was perfect for her as you only have to climb a few steps to get into the apartment. The keyless entry feature was definitely appreciated.
Asaf's apartment is located in Briarwood, which is a quiet, residential neighborhood that makes you forget you're in NYC, but has all of the conveniences of the city, such as easy access to stores and public transportation. The E/F trains are only a short walk away. It was easy for all my family members to come visit my mom using public transit.
The apartment itself is small and cozy, perfect for a single person or a small family. If you like to cook, you will have everything you need to do so. The Key Food Supermarket is just a short walk from the apartment, and you will have plenty of cookware, plates, and utensils to make eating your meals at home possible. Some condiments were also provided.
Plenty of towels and toilet paper were provided. Someone mentioned that the bathroom is small. While the bathroom is quite small and may be an issue for some, it was totally adequate for us.
The Wifi was very reliable.
As others mentioned, the apartment has a lovely little patio, perfect for sitting out and getting some fresh air, reading a book, or getting work done. We didn't use the patio much, but it was definitely an added bonus.
Asaf and his dad are wonderful hosts, and I highly recommend their place to anyone! If you want peace, quiet, a sense of privacy that you don't get at hotels, and easy access to stores, public transportation, and Manhattan, this is the place for you! I wouldn't think twice about booking this place again.
