I only met Tameisha's sister and mother and they were both very friendly and helpful. They were flexible when I arrived late. I was visiting New York solo and the place was set up perfectly for me, with all that I needed. Even though it is quite far from midtown Manhattan, there are a couple of subway lines that are close, about a 10 or 15min walk. But it does take about 30 mins by subway with changes. I would recommend not to fly in and out of Newark if you are going to stay here unless you know the subway system and don't have a massive bag to drag around! Could have been more responsive to my messages.
