My girlfriend and I were at Jake's for one week. He and his wife are a lovely couple that provided us with breakfast. The room is near the kitchen and it is a bit small but enough for 1 or 2 people with not so much luggage. The bathroom is shared and we're sorry to say it but everything could have been more clean. The house is between two subway stations (line R and N) in Brooklyn, approx. 30 minutes to Times Square. The neighborhood is very calm with a big latin community.
