Jewel met us for check in and gave us great recommendations for places to eat that fit my dietary restrictions. She was friendly and available during our stay. We appreciated the free beer and use of the common areas. The location was great and I loved exploring the immediate area with predominant Caribbean culture. The subway was a couple of blocks away and made getting to other parts of the city easy and convenient. We spent time in Prospect Park which was a short walking distance away. I highly recommend Jewel’s place as a base for exploring NYC.
