This was my first experience with an Airb&b, and my first time in NYC. I was bringing my daughter to see a concert in Belmont Park. We wanted to spend a couple days exploring Manhattan, but I was definitely nervous. Alecza was beyond amazing! She gave us a ton of info and tips for NYC, she showed me how to manage the LIRR and her place was very close to one of the stops. It was a super easy straight shot into the city, about 30 min on the train, and we were there. My 12 yr old loved experiencing the train, and it was way easier (thanks to Alecza's help), than driving in. We were also only 10 min from the UBS Stadium in Belmont Park, and it was a breeze from her place to get to for the concert. Alecza clearly cares about her place and wanted us to be comfortable and happy! It was beautiful, beds were so comfy, and she had anything you could possibly need. We even did a load of laundry with her complimentary pods! She offered restaurant ideas when I mentioned ordering in, and was available the whole 5 days with any questions/concerns we had. I cannot say enough about her place, the location, the parking spot in her driveway, the small touches, her kindness and understanding of my nervousness and lack of experience with the city. She truly cares, and it showed in so many ways! Absolutely a 💎 of a place in a convenient, safe, beautiful neighborhood, but so close to all we went to do! I couldn't have asked for a better first experience with Airb&b and NYC having Alecza as our host!☺️
