This apartment is absolutely GORGEOUS in every way, and it was PERFECT for my needs and those of my fellow guests!
Seriously, I don’t know if it’s possible to do any better than Dominique’s amazing space in Long Island City. The apartment itself was beautiful! The first thing that struck me as we entered the apartment was that it was so much more spacious and appealing than I had even expected! We knew about the many amenities that were the big selling points for us… two bedrooms with king beds, two bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, a comfortable living room with comfy looking sofas (and yes, they really are as comfy as they appear), fast internet, LOTS of windows to let in natural light, a washer/dryer in the apartment, and an elevator! But it was the spaciousness, the light, the cleanliness, the comfortable furnishings, and the attention to detail in the apartment that impressed us more than we already were.
Outside the apartment is just one of the friendliest little NYC neighborhoods you could ever hope to call your home away from home. It’s a very safe and very comfortable residential neighborhood. We found lots of families out with their kids, people walking their dogs, folks jogging and playing in nearby parks. There is a great little grocery store, a pharmacy, coffee shops, and restaurants all within one block of the apartment. There is an abundance of many more amazing restaurants within just a few blocks. The East River with its big, beautiful waterfront is a very short 5-10 minute walk. In the other direction, another 5-10 minute walk, is very easy and convenient train access that can bring you into Manhattan in a matter of minutes.
Last, our host, Dominique, was just wonderful. She quickly replied to all of our questions, and we felt very well taken care of throughout our entire stay.
