Nanda and her husband were already waiting for us the day we arrived. All was ready and really the way it was described on AirBnB. There was even a big plus: Free Wifi and a hairdryer. There were also a big ventilator and a small one (we never used) - like this we always had a nice breeze trough our room as there a two small windows on the opposite walls. What also was very nice: Nanda was cleaning the room once a week and provided us with fresh towels. The privacy we had was great. Like at home - also due to the private entrance. There is always some security in form of the neighbour's dog called Shiva. A really cute, friendly and you always welcoming dog.
The location was a also a good, safe and pretty calm one. Concerning public transportation: If you walk 'normal' fast you're within 10 minutes at the 111th Street A train station (Subway) which takes you in app. 45 minutes to the area of Penn Station (34th Street & 8th Avenue). The J and Z Subway is a bit closer but don't forget that they are local trains - you definitely are faster with the A train if you wanna go to Manhattan. The very nearby bus stop has never been used by us.
Both, Nanda and her husband, were very friendly, helpful in any way and made us feel very comfortable and home at their place. We were a couple (45 & 31 yrs.) and would stay there again, no doubt.
