Min is such a warm and welcoming host. She is quick to respond to texts. She offers a detailed map and guide to the neighborhood to all of her guests, and she's incredibly knowledgeable about the LIC, its restaurants, museums, etc.

The apartment is a short walk from the E, M, G and 7 trains, so getting to Manhattan and/or Brooklyn is a breeze. It's also very close to markets, restaurants, basketball and handball courts and Moma's PS1.

Min has the cutest dog, Shotzy and she sits for another very loving dog, Eva. I'm not a dog person, but I fell for these two. They are quiet and super sweet. Either they don't shed or Min vacuums regularly because I never saw evidence of dog hair.

As far as the room goes, it was clean, stocked with hair dryer and iron. I had plenty of towels and surfaces for computing and housing my luggage. Wifi was fast. Bed and pillows were comfy. It's New York, so there's street noise, but you can muffle it with the fan or bring ear plugs.

Overall, I highly recommend Min's place. I would book again in a heartbeat.
