I booked this condo to attend Mets baseball games and it was the perfect location for the games. It's very close to the Main St station for the 7 line (which also goes into Manhattan to Grand Central for easy access to the tourist locations), but better yet, you can walk to the games in just under a mile. The pedestrian path has been completely re-done on the north side of the bridge. Then take the 7 train back one stop to Main St and you're home after the game. There are a ton of restaurants and shopping close by including chains, but also plenty of local flavor. The 8 pork dumplings and cabbage for $5 at the New World Mall food court is a fantastic lunch deal. Jmart and Target are both nearby. I didn't cook during my stay, but the kitchen appears to be well equipped. The bathroom has been completely remodeled and the shower is fantastic. The mattress on the full size bed is also great with an outlet very close. I'd stay again if I'm back in the area and it's available.
