I stayed here for 93 nights.
The perks here are convenience and cleanliness. It is a relatively expensive place to stay for NYC, although Astoria (the neighborhood) is more expensive.
The home is a 5 minute walk from the 30th Ave train station (trains N or W) which take you to downtown Manhattan in 30 minutes, not including the time you may spend waiting which is longer on weekends or evenings.
As for cleanliness, floors are mopped and garbage is taken out on a regular basis. A guest will be given the option to change their sheets every so often. Sometimes we would run out of paper towels and body wash, but there would always be plenty of toilet paper and shampoo.
This is essentially a self-service hostel:
1) The check-in process consists of getting two key-codes which are used to let yourself into the building and into your room. (I never met Lolita or anybody helping her. Don't expect to meet them.)
2) When told about a stray cat in the hallway, Lolita asked for me to shoo it away. When the internet was down, I was asked to restart the router. (Restarting the router is no problem, but having to remove a cat from the premises is not what I signed up for.)
Be sure to save a copy of the room description before moving in. Lolita inaccurately claimed a guest would have to get her approval when receiving packages. This was not stated anywhere in the room description and should be communicated better.
