We booked the place strictly out of convenience -- We were visiting Forrest Hills Stadium for a concert and this unit was a 15 minute walk. Otherwise, nothing exciting in the area for our interests, so we simply used this rental as a place to rest.
That being said, the unit was extremely clean and comfortable - I've a bad lower back and the mattress was firm and supportive (usually a hard thing to find with AirBnbs!). We had no use for the kitchen, but if you intend on cooking a few of your own meals, it seemed a bit understocked when compared to other AirBnbs we've rented -- but hardly a gripe if you're like us and prefer to enjoy the infinite food options in NYC. There is a strip of restaurants nearby, about a 10 minute walk.
Subway is extremely handy -- there's a stop just outside the door. There's another stop about a 14 minute walk depending on which line you're after. 40-50 subway ride minutes into Manhattan, but usually direct so pretty easy.
Would recommend if you're in Forrest Hills/Queens for a specific reason. Also acts as a budget option at the cost of a 30-60 minute travel to other boroughs of NYC. Cheaper than staying in Manhattan!
(Honest warning as I appreciate these sorts of notes when I look for a rental: If you're sensitive to smells, maybe look elsewhere. The building is very strongly scented in terms of air fresheners/food/laundry outside the rental door etc. Didn't bother us, but for those sensitive to fragrances and food smells, this could be triggering.)
