We really enjoyed our stay. Location was perfect with the proximity to JFK, transport links into Manhattan and availability of local shops & restaurants. We also felt very safe in the area. There was good space in the apartment although the decor felt a little tired. We live in a very quiet rural area of the UK and did notice the train and plane noise but very quickly got used to it and it really wasn’t a problem for us. Indeed it just contributed to the whole suburban experience ! We used the local supermarkets, chemists and restaurants and found the service welcoming and friendly. Our two favourite haunts were the Bee Cafe - great for coffee and light bites and Woodside Cafe - great for breakfast, dinner and pizza (not necessarily at the same time !). Dan was the perfect host answering many questions ahead of our stay and letting us leave our luggage in his garage on our final day. Overall a fab stay and we’d happily stay again.
