This is our go to when visiting our daughter. Elizabeth is a welcoming, responsive host. We have stayed three or four times in the past three years. We would have been here more often without the recent pandemic limiting travel.
The house is warm and welcoming. Inside you will find beautiful stained glass, painted tin ceilings and cornices, carved bannisters, beautiful parquet flooring and other architectural finishes throughout. The beds and linens are comfortable and conducive to a peaceful, restorative sleep. We feel comfortable and safe here.
The location is convenient. Beverley Rd Q train station is just a few minutes walk away. There is a Latino Bakery / Grocery next door and a 7-11 diagonally across the street for late nights.
The Cortelyou area is one subway stop beyond Beverley Dr or about a 10-15 minute walk away. There are multiple restaurants offering a wide variety of service styles and cuisines. In addition there is a grocery store, pharmacy, Urgent Care and several variety stores that will most likely fulfill any personal need.
It is worth your while to walk around the neighborhood. Most of the homes are single family and built in the early 1900’s. The architectural styles differ from other areas of NYC. Many of the homes are craftsman style, Queen Anne, Colonial Revival or an amalgamation. The architectural details are lovely. We have always felt safe walking in the area. That being said one should always be aware & cautious.
We recommend staying here due to the comfort, responsiveness of host, safety, convenience of location and unique neighborhood architecture. You will enjoy your stay.
