We had an overall positive experience here. He is a very nice host with prompt response and clear communication. I need to practice flute during my stay and he was very accommodating. The neighbourhood is nice and we felt safe during our stay. A few things to note: 1) The place is actually older than shown on the photo. The layout is the same, but some part of the accommodation are showing signs of wear. 2) No air-con, and it was really hot during our stay. (feels like 40C) The fan works well and does cool down the place after a while. 3) The first two nights of our stay the tenant in the upstairs apartment seems be running back and forth literally ALL NIGHT and the foot steps prevented any sleep. We were really annoyed, esp. after a long flight! He was away during that time and advised afterwards it was another group of people with kids that were staying. This is really nothing to do with him but if you are a light sleeper you might want to take note. 4) Public Transit is not as convenient as I thought, averaging 40mins-1hour door to door to Manhattan. However it is VERY close to LGA. I would definitely recommend this place if you want space and privacy with the convenience of a small kitchenette.
