My friend Valeria and I stayed at Svetlana's place for six nights and saying we had a great time is definitely an understatement.
Svetlana's mother warmly welcomed us and gave us all the instructions for the house and the keys. We then met Svetlana that same night who was kind enough to provide us with everything we might need during our stay, chocolate and coupons included.
Our experience was lovely, both in the house and around Roosevelt Island. It is a magical area of NYC that allows you to escape the madness of the city both in the morning and at night. The Tramway was our favorite mean of transport going to and coming from Manhattan, and it is literally down the road from the apartment.
Overall, Svetlana was a great host, her apartment is beautifully put together and the location is quite unique and very practical.
I highly suggest this listing, I myself am considering coming back next time I'm in the city.
