First and foremost, if you are looking for a room to stay in Queens, look no further. Petya’s listing is the absolute best option you can find for the price. It is clean, quiet, safe, conveniently located, and affordable.
You will be sharing the place with the actual owner of the apartment, a lovely lady Elena and her cat. Elena is an honest and hardworking person. She is an incredible host, who is willing to go above and beyond to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable.
The room is big, clean, and bright, with a ton of space to store your belongings. The bed is a queen size with a firm and comfortable mattress. Moreover, the room has a desk that can be used to get some work done. Despite the room having a queen-size bed, desk, two nightstands, and a big dresser, there was still some space left for me to do some basic exercises and stretches. High-speed internet and a TV with Netflix are also available. During my stay, I rarely heard my neighbors from behind the wall and could always get some rest and a good night of sleep.
The whole place is spotless and cozy. The shower is clean and always has hot water with strong pressure. You will be provided with a towel if you don’t have one. The kitchen has all the necessary appliances, like a microwave, refrigerator, stove, and even a panini press.
The neighborhood is quiet and safe. I walked through it many times at night and never saw anything suspicious or odd. There are restaurants, convenience stores, a laundromat, and a train station within walking distance or a short bus ride.
I was in New York for some contract work and lived at Elena’s place for two months. I’m so glad that I was able to find her place. Elena’s welcoming personality and friendliness made me feel home away from home.
