The place was comfortable and neighborhood was quiet. Yahaira greeted us in person which made us feel very welcome. Travelling through the city was convenient by car. Train is a couple of blocks away. Take the number 2 train straight to Time Square. The home is near the Bronx zoo which was a very nice attraction. New York food is amazing, whether you are eating locally from the near by stores or ordering take out. It is all cheap, I recommend trying Tana Thai restaurant.
