I did not see much of Balwinder since we were out most of the days that we stayed at his home but he made our stay very comfortable. The room where we stayed is very clean with a private full bath. He also provided us with fresh towels and soap/shampoo. The house is very quiet in a relatively safe and quiet neighborhood except for the occasional siren from the ambulance or fire truck that passes by Atlantic Ave. The house is located very close to the Q10 bus stop which stops at the JFK terminal 5. I would suggest riding the bus from there too instead of going to Lefferts especially late at night if you are going to his house. Going to NYC takes a bit of a time so plan accordingly. If you take the A train from Lefferts/Ozone park, it would take approx 1 hr to get to Times Square from his house. I still think it was worth it since we had a wonderful stay at his house.
