Good value, really great hosts, convenient to the train to the ferry.
We had a nice long friendly chat with Alvin. Nice man.
Don't let the area fool you. It is a good area and everyone we interacted with was friendly. We walked about 2 miles to the Italian bakery and back, and talked to a few people on the way.
We walked to and from the train station twice. It's behind the Subway sandwich shop.on Bay st.
Get on the train on the water side, go down to the end of the line, 2 stations, pay 3.00, and get on the free ferry to battery park, or pay 2.75 for the mid town ferry.
We parked our car on the street across from Nen's house for two days with no issues at all.
It's an upstairs apt..Stairs lead you up.
There are three bedrooms. Two are in the apartment proper, and one is in the upstairs hall above the stairs. it has a separate key and lock for privacy.
The kitchen was well stocked. Fridge has basic condiments. There is no dishwasher but we didn't mind that.
The beds are comfortable. Each room has an AC unit and fan.
We sat on the front porch each evening and watched the fireflies and an occasional person.
Wifi was super fast. However, the TV has no streaming services.
All in all this is a great value for NYC and a great host and hostess.
Thank you Nen and Alvin.
