The place of Carlos is overally the best possible experience, which you can get if you're visiting NYC!
I say experience, because staying at his place it's not just having a bed to crash after a full day of walking around the city, it includes personal care from the hosts, a spacious room with great amenities and one of the most cozy kitchens with full equipment, giving you the opportunity to experiment with some local food!
Regarding location - you cannot find more connected place in the whole city - with both buses and subway lines at walking distance, even if you are with a large suitcase and Manhattan centre just half an hour away. Having a large supermarket, local shops and farmers market in the neighbourhood makes the house location perfect also for a lazy or rainy day, or if you want to explore Queens and to see more exotic parts of NYC.
We strongly recommend this place and we look forward to seeing Carlos again at our next American adventure :)
