Great alternative to staying in Manhattan

We love New York....2nd visit here. Buy a 7 day transport card. We were only here for 4 days and it still saved us money.....and it saves the hassle of finding places to buy a ticket. Go for brunch - great NY experience.

Queens is a multi cultural place, very safe, great views, excellent transport system, less expensive than manhattan island. Long Island City has a number of places to eat out around the place. Very nice place for couples and families
