Chester is a phenomenally friendly guy who is a top notch and responsive host. A real pleasure. It is easy to get to the subway (<10 min walk) and there are plenty of trains to get you to Manhattan or other tourist destinations. The place is clean and as advertised, including all amenities that you would need, including coffee/tea/olive oil/condiments. However, be mindful that I would not necessarily wander around the area at night all too much.
