My husband, 2 month old baby and I stayed at the home of Marc and Farnoosh and absolutely loved it. They are a very international and diverse, sweet family. The rental is located in their basement and comes with an ensuite bathroom and we had access to their living room and kitchen area. They were truly exceptional hosts. Not only did they respond to my queries in a very timely matter, they anticipated some of our needs. They went out of their way to help us in many ways, which we were grateful for. The room is spacious, quiet and private, cozy and very clean. The bed was very comfortable ( I'm picky about bed comfort) and spacious. Given the high price and questionable quality of accommodation in NYC, we were fortunate to have found this place to stay at am affordable price which met our needs. Loved the awesome shower head and great water pressure, too! It is located on a nice and quiet residential street. There is a bus just a few minutes away that takes you to Manhattan in ~20 mins and subway station a 15 min walk away. Their home is near several convenience stores, supermarkets and some restaurants. It's also a couple of stops from the trendy and beautiful area of Forest Hills. It was easy enough for us to get around with our small baby. We will definitely reach out to them next time we come to NYC as we'd love to stay with them again. Highly recommended!
