David’s family’s garden apartment was incredible! Don’t sleep on this listing if you’re visiting NYC. I never thought I’d Airbnb in Staten Island, but I’m between leases and needed somewhere to crash for a few nights with my partner.
Like David mentions in the listing, the ferry was about a ten minute drive away / 20ish minute walk (There’s also a bus). Also in walking distance of some good eats. The apartment itself was incredibly spacious, beautiful exposed wood and new appliances. The noise wasn’t an issue at all— it’s just like having an upstairs neighbor, if you’re accustomed to that, you hear some muffled footsteps here and there.
The WiFi could be spotty, I wouldn’t intend to do hours on hours of laptop work here, but there are surrounding cafes for that if anything.
All in all, loved our stay and would definitely book again!
