We set out to explore NY and we got to stay at this place for 3 days. This has a very good neighborhood where I think many retired people leave- leaving the place quite and calm. We were sharing the house with a few other people which really turned out to be fun during the evenings where we had a lot of chit chats.

Pros - Good Ambiance, class looks (little Scary..lol), Silent neighborhood, S44 runs to Ferry in fixed intervals. Not sure about the frequency, since we decided to walk to the Ferry

Cons - Pretty Far from Manhattan. So you need to plan accordingly. 20 mins of Ferry and time to ferry to walk is 20 mins. No restaurants near. Nearest ones are closer the Ferry area.

Over All, I would recommend this place to any gang of 3-4 who wants to sleep outside the city life during their vacation and do things in a slow manner.
