I really enjoyed my stay here! Check in was easy and Trey's (owner) communication was awesome. The mattress in the bedroom was very comfortable; for reference my husband and I are both tall people (6'4" and 5'8") and we slept comfortably, and our teenage son slept on the sofa bed.
The neighborhood is very quiet, and the subway can be heard in the distance since it is only a five minute walk to the nearest subway station (Broadway Junction). As far as proximity to Manhattan/site seeing goes, pretty much everything we wanted to do required a train ride of at least 30 minutes which we were fine with, because we wanted the experience of riding the train, which we found to be very easy to navigate and convenient. For people who aren't comfortable riding the train you'd be spending an insane amount of money taking Uber back and forth each day. Great place to stay!
