It's hard to find something about Akram's place. Everything went perfect during our week long stay. We were there to run the NYC Marathon, so we need some quiet time, and that's what we had. I must confess that on saturday night it could be a little noisy until midnight, but after that... no problem.
The place it's pretty well located (just 30 minutes away from Times Square), near the bridges and the beautiful landscapes to New York, and has a nice neighbourhood. For us it was like the perfect choice and will consider again this place in the future.
You have a few supermarkets nearby, just like coffee shops, mobile stores... In fact, you have everything you need. If you fancy a NBA match, the Barclays Center it's like 20 min away, walking distance.
