We had a wonderful stay at Lauren's home. From check in to check out everything went smoothly. She is very responsive with any questions you might have. The kitchen has all utensils you need for cooking. All the details and small touches spoke to our souls so we felt like home (decoration, vibe). There is a nice balcony where you can meditate, take some sun, and also have great views of the Empire State ;) There are lots of great grocery and shopping options close by. The Trade Fair grocery store near the subway was great, it had lots of international and organic food options. We were there in winter and the heater was great. There are no bad things to say. Simple as that. And we've been to NY many times. We stayed in many regions too but first time in Queens and we liked it. We would definitely consider staying at Lauren's home again if we need to come back. Thank you Lauren!
