Another excellent stay at Jason & Ondines house! This is our home away from home. We are truly fortunate & blessed we got to stay here again. This apartment is on the 3rd floor. It's very comfortable, clean, sunlit, and perfect for singles or couples - just enough space! It offers everything you could possibly need and want!!! We have been to other AirBnB on Staten Island and truly this one offers the best value for receiving more than expected.
It's very safe, clean, comfortable, private, spacious, stocked kitchen with all your necessities to cook in and a semi stocked fridge with your morning necessities that Ondine provides, very cool with two A/C's for the hot & humid days, many storage closet spaces, excellent WiFi & Cable TV, and a super host that is incomparable to any other host I have met - this house, Jason & Ondine is a gem and Ondine genuinely cares for her guest and appreciates them to the utmost and extends her kindness to make sure you are happy & enjoying yourself. So please take good care of her and you will receive more than expected!
The neighborhood is 10 minutes walking to the Free Ferry that operates 24 hours, every half hour and on peak times every 20 minutes (from am & pm Monday - Friday), holiday hours are different so check the schedule at Staten Island Ferry online or at the terminal. This neighborhood is safe and I never had any problems! It's quiet at night, very comfortable and easy to walk around the neighborhood, grocery store, deli and restaurants during the day. This home is in the best area because you don't have to take a bus or train to the free ferry - very convenient & easy.
The house is divided into 3 residences and the 2nd & 3rd floor are for AirBnB guest which are both private, separate entrances, safe, spacious, comfortable, quite - you can't hear the other guest. They have two cats but maybe, just maybe if you are lucky you may see Khan the orange young energetic cat if he comes to greet you while he is sunbathing outside as you are walking along since he is very friendly but most of the time you don't hardly see them and they don't come into your apartment and not even in the common main entrance area.
You can't go wrong in staying here and I am telling you the exceptional service, kindness, hospitality, welcoming feeling & care that you receive from Ondine & Jason & even Khan, I have yet to receive from any other host that I have stayed in on Staten Island!!!
All the best to you Jason & Ondine and of course Khan & Olive!
Love,
Gina & Arash
