Pamela is a great host. She is very welcoming and makes recommendations of restaurants around Queens. Her place is very clean and quiet. It is located within a five minute walk from the subway. On the second day I was there, it was raining so walking around NYC was going to be difficult. She invited me to go shopping in New Jersey and I had a great time! Plus New Jersey is sales tax free! There is a great nail shop on the corner from her home, just in case you have time to get a pedi and a mani. Definitely recommend staying at her place!
