The room was nice and clean when I got there. What you see is what you get; spacy room, great private bathroom and access to a small terrace. The rooms looks to the back yard and it is mostly quiet and feels safe. Access to the G line of the subway is two minutes by foot. Waldemar, the host, was great in the process of reserving the room and the check-in in and out. There are a couple of nice restaurants close by, but the neighborhood is quiet. I commuted every day to Manhattan, Grand Central, and it took me between 30 to 40 minutes.
