Daniel's place is exactly as advertised. It's very clean, quiet, and close to the heart of Long Island City. It's also a convenient subway ride away from Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Astoria.
Daniel was an excellent host - very accommodating and responsive.
If I had one quibble, it was that the apartment doesn't seem to get great airflow. Daniel provided a mobile AC unit and several fans, but they weren't sufficient - the temperature in the apartment got pretty warm even on 75-to-85 degree days in New York. Installing a window AC unit would be an excellent addition in the spring and summer months.
