Karen and the family were very nice, her place is located greatly near the subway and L line that takes you to the main connections. Place is super cheap and the quality is a bit over it, since our room was in the basement. At first we felt unsecure as we expected to be the only guests in their apartment, where the structure is made that you can’t have an idea how many people are inside at all times. We booked 2 nights, it was a helpful stay to save money but as we are not hostel type of guests, this wasnt our best fit, eventhough everyone was super cool and NYish. Good luck Karen thanks for the snacks and hospitality.
