Tara goes out of her way to make guests feel at home. This was a comfortable place for our family of 4 to spread out after exploring the city for 12 hours each day. We took the subway (mostly 6 train at 116th St) every day and never had any trouble, but might recommend Lyft/Uber after dark on Fri/Sat nights. Definitely pick up a $15 (cash) cheese pizza from Patsy's!
