Roxanne's and Jalina's place is absolutely the best place you could ever imagine to stay away from home and feel like home in the Bronx "and beyond". Our recommendation is to book yours before the open spots are gone!! 100% satisfaction. If you are reading our review, do not hesitate!!! If you need more assurance, read below for more information from our personal experience of staying there for more than a month in June-July 2021.
We were relocating to NY and we needed a place to stay temporarily while we find our permanent place, and we needed the place to be in the proximity of Jacobi Medical Center where my wife worked at. We were lucky to find this place and initially booked it for about three weeks, but then extended our stay for two more weeks!
To begin with, the place was sparkling clean, filled with all amenities you may think of, appliances, coffee maker in two models (Both for coffee/tea brewing and with coffee pods), blender, pots, pans, utensils, nice kitchen knife set (very helpful if you do a lot of cooking as we did), smart TV (Netflix, etc, -- OR bring your Chromecast and plug it in there if you want to stream from your own device-- as we did), a delicious selection of coffee pods (try the hazelnut one for sure, if you were lucky to see it there!), instant coffee, sparkling water, etc!
During our stay, Roxanne and Jalina went above and beyond to meet all our needs and provide us with all the assistance needed. They were "very" kind, responsive, professional, and hospitable.
Parking around this place is a blessing! No time schedule/restriction on when/where not-to/to park somewhere and you could easily find a spot around the place. Trust us, we stayed in multiple places in NY, Hone ave Bronx, Crown heights Brookline, and parking was our biggest struggle. Not here!!!
For shopping, you could drive for ~15 mins and get to the Costco at New Rochelle, or less than ~ 10 mins to Stop & Shop. There is a very nice mall in Baychester Ave ~ 10 mins that you could spend a good amount of time in, nice restaurants, fast food chains, etc. That's what we did for shopping and dining. there are nearby shops within walking distance as well, Deli & Walgreens ~ 4 mins walking.
Lastly, Roxanne and Jalina, thank you for making this place feel like home for us!!!
