Assiati and her family are great hosts, they gave us lots of tips and information about local places. They were kind enough to let us keep our luggage there after check out until we were due to leave for the airport later that day.
The apartment is lovely, clean, quiet, pleasant to stay in and has everything you would need, the area is friendly, subway not far and as long as you catch the Express Train its very quick to get to Manhattan.
We arrived on a Saturday, as we discovered they usually do maintenance work at the weekend on the AirTrain line that you need to catch to get to the correct subway line (A) , if this is the case get a cab instead as the journey via their diversion route is long and busy to the apartment.
We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend two local places as a must - Manny's Diner - 212 Patchen Ave, Brooklyn NY, 11233 & Chez Oskar - 310 Malcolm X, Brooklyn, NY 11205-4042
