I spent 2 weeks at Isaac's home without my husband because I needed to be close to my aunt who is in a nursing home 3 blocks away. I'm familiar with the neighborhood so I knew what to expect. I felt safe in the neighborhood alone and I came home very late on some evenings. The room is quiet and comfortable and the bed is amazing. You will miss the bed when you leave. There are many restaurants and grocery stores very close. I enjoyed my stay very much. Isaac is a very nice guy and it was a pleasure to meet him. The room is large and very comfortable. I was able to watch TV and free movies on Apple TV. The home is close to to many subway and bus lines. The D, B, C trains into Manhattan have an elevator from the street right to the subway platform. You also have the option of taking a luxury express bus on the Grand Concourse (one block away) into Manhattan and back (until 12:00 PM) for $6.50. The elevator worked all but one day in 2 weeks so it was not an issue for me. I would recommend this location to anyone who wants a good value for their dollar.
