Jennifer generously waitied up until almost midnight to receive us when we arrived. The place was as described and as expected. She organised for me to park using her neighbour's parking spot (for a fee but worth it for guaranteed larking). The neighborhood is nice, with supermarkets and halaal food (for Muslims) within walking distance. Jennifer took my family for a walk around the neighbourhood to get familiar with the place.
Overall it was a good trip and stay at Jennifer's. The only downside was the crazy weather. It was scorching hot some days then rain storms on others. Nonetheless, I would recommend Jennifer's place for your stay in N.Y.
