First - the pictures don’t do the place justice. It’s a super cool (and super clean) place! There is a Smart TV with a bunch of apps and a Bluetooth speaker in the bathroom ceiling…both really nice things to have. The house has a private entrance with keypad so it’s easy to come and go.
It’s a 2 minute walk to the closest two bus stops, and about 20 minute walk to the subway without taking a bus. We walked to the house after midnight a few times from a few train stations on the 7 line and didn’t feel unsafe at all (about a mile walk). The immediate neighborhood feels very safe.
Edgar went out of his way to pick us up from the airport after our flight was delayed. We are more appreciative than we can say! He was great at telling us about the neighborhood, where we can get the bus to the train station and just very friendly. Clear timely communication all around and just a pleasure. You won’t find a better host!
