We had a wonderful stay at this apartment and will definitely be back. The host is extremely nice and welcoming, and went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable. I wish all hosts were like Marek. The apartment was extremely clean, had plenty of windows and light and was very very comfortable. Plus, the apartment comes with a beautiful backyard! If you know Rockaway, then I do not need to let you know that this is a good location. If you don't know Rockaway, then let me say this is the absolute BEST location on the peninsula. You are just a few houses from the ocean, 1 block from the subway, walking distance to shopping, and right smack in the middle of all the boardwalk concessions where you can grab food/drinks and listen to live music, all while looking at the ocean. And if you surf, the legally designated surf area is a just a couple of blocks away. All around excellent apartment and location!
