Dorina is GREAT. She is extremely accommodating and responsive. Whenever I reached out in need to communicate with her- whether it be asking about good restaurants, asking to arrange a different check in/out time, or if she could hold our bags after check out until we headed to the airport, her responses were quick and positive.

She is an upbeat and thoughtful host, insuring her properties are stocked with everything a guest may need. The stay was infinitely better than a hotel, and the best vacation rental I've stayed in to date. With fresh towels, robes, plenty of information about local restaurants/ attractions via brochures, cable television, broad assortment of dvd's, comfortable furnishings, fully stocked kitchen (from the basics like filtered water and coffee to bought-just-for-you luxuries like eggs, milk, juice, popcorn, even wine!). It definitely feels as though Dorina thinks of everything, like she's a long time friend who wants nothing more than for you to feel at home, and have everything you need. Visitors need not worry if they'll have to bring or buy any additional toiletries or passtimes because Dorina has it all.

I will definitely be recommending this rental to friends and looking into it for my future trips to New York. Even though it is outside Manhattan, I did not at all mind sacrificing the location for the amenities at Dorina's. The property is close enough to the subway and just minutes from Metropolitan ave, where there are plenty of good restaurants! A+!
