We really enjoyed the area - the neighborhood is quiet and safe and the apartment is close to an (accessible) subway station. The apartment was well suited as a base for our family's New York trip - located on the B & Q trains with good access to the rest of the city. There are also amenities close by. As a bonus, it was easy to find street parking in the area.
MJ & Abe were very welcoming (the bagels were a nice touch!) and we had no issues with check-in and communication during our stay; they were very responsive. We had a minor issue that was quickly fixed thanks to their attention.
Would definitely recommend for a family - would stay here again!
