I would definitely recommend BJs place because:
1. We contact BJ at short notice and was accommodated right away. BJ replies near instantly and stay in contact often.
2. The place is beautiful. Artsy, eclectic, and vibrant.
3. The place has all that you need.
4. The location is really nice. Taking the 6 train straight to Manhattan is convenient. (it takes around 40 mins total to get from the apartment to manhattan but that depends on your walking speed as well.) Also a safe walk back from the station to the apartment even at night.
5. Lovely house mates!
