We booked the apartment due to a family emergency, it was about a 15 minute walk from Elmhurst Hospital. So that was good for us.
The Q60 bus on Queens Blvd was just a few minutes walk from the apartment.
The beds were comfortable. Mattresses were very good. I like a flat sheet as well as the comforter when sleeping but that is a personal perference.
The place was clean but there was no broom or dustpan for us to keep the place tidy.
There is a kitchen but not much space to prepare a meal. There was a pot, and frying pan but no cooking utensils like spatula or big spoon. It made it difficult to cook so we ate take out all the time. I don't know if we are just use to staying in air Bnb's in Ireland and UK but whenever we have used airbnb before there has been some take out menus and recommendations for places to eat. There are also staples like sugar, coffee and water. We had to buy dishwashing liquid.
We were there a week so a place to hang laundry that we did at the laundromat (which is in walking distance) would have been great.
We were 2 people and there were 2 towels provided so we had to go and buy more towels. I needed one for my hair. They talk about being careful when taking a shower not to let water drip but they don't have any floor mats to help with that. We ended up using one of the towels to make sure that didn't happen.
There was thunder and rain one night and I woke up to a dripping sound and went out into the hallway to water dripping from the ceiling. We put a towel down and dryed it up and then left a towel and a small garbage can under it to catch the water. We sent a message to owner who said they would have roof fixed.
There was netflix on the tv in living room but we felt that the couch was uncomfortable.
The stairs up to the apartment were very steep and narrow and that was an issue for us.
