We had a wounderful stay at the Wielingen. I strongly recommend this place for any stay in NYC. You won't get a better value for your money! The place is nice, neat and spacious and Jurmain and his dad are great people to meet. Walking through the Bronx ain't a problem since the metro station is close by - the way takes only five minutes on two main streets. Been here with my girlfriend after living for three months on the upper eastside and, sure, it is different - but i didn't feel afraid aboy my girlfriend and me at any time. Jurmain is a superb host - always nice, friendly, calm and super-responsive prebooking AND during your stay. You can ask him or his dad about anything you like and they will always make your stay even more comfortable than it already is. This includes tips for your stay, but also the possibility to use their personal pc and printer; his Dad even offeres me to borrow his car and, for a low wage, Jurmain would even bring you to the airport when your stay ends. All in all i can state: i had a lot of doubts about staying in the bronx with my gf. but they all turned out to be unreasonable and i am more than glad that i stayed with my decision to spend my vacation at The Wielingens - great place, great people!
