Anthony's place is great. The neighborhood felt safe, we walked from the subway to the apartment at 1:00 a.m. and did not feel insecure. Speaking of the subway, it's about a 10-15 minutes walk. The time to get to the city is circumstantial since depends on the part of the city you are going to. But I'll say that on average it is about 45 minutes, which I believe it's a good cost/value relationship. If I ever come back to the city, I would definitely contact Anthony. Thanks for your hospitality!
