We had a wonderful stay in Queens. We rented one of the rooms to spend a few nights vacation in New York. The location was perfect - an easy 5 minute walk to the subway (M train) which brought us to trendy Williamsburg and Manhattan. What I also liked about the neighborhood was some cool mom and pop restaurants and cafes (Japanese, Thai, Polish, South American) all within walking distance. The area felt safe with a mix of people from all over. Also, it was relatively easy to find on street parking a few blocks away, without having to pay for daily parking which can be expensive in New York. The space was newly renovated and modern - very comfortable bed, nice bathroom, and ample space. The room had a desk, dresser, closet and good lighting, which made it easy to relax after a long day walking around. Although we didn't cook, we had access to the newly renovated modern kitchen, which was a nice touch. The host was friendly and provided some good tips on where to eat in the neighborhood. I will definitely come back and stay at this place next time I visit NYC.
