Karen is an amazing host, very kind and quick to respond and always ready to answer my numerous questions... The place is lovely and cosy, as well as very clean. My daughter and I felt safe in this residential area. Perfect if you need to commute to JFK. If you wish to visit Manhattan as we did, you have a 20 min walk to get to the train station (LIRR) which brings you to Penn Station. Thanks again for everything :)
