Dorina hosted us in Middle Village, Queens in NY state in her downstairs studio apartment. This is a lovely big space with a huge double bed, kitchenette with microwave, hot plates, fridge and all the normal kitchen equipment such as plates, cups, cooking pots, utensils etc. it is VERY well equipped.
There is a large living area with TV, sofa, dining table and chairs and a separate bathroom and shower room. It is in excellent condition, very well looked after, meticulously clean and everything you would need is included.
Dorina is an excellent host. She communicated with us regularly before arrival and made helpful suggestions for our travel from Newark airport given we were arriving later at night on a weekend. On arrival she had stocked the fridge with milk, butter, eggs, muffins and made our first morning, after a long day of travel from the UK, really pleasant and easy. There is a very helpful manual provided covering shopping, restaurants, transport options, local amenities and instructions on how to enjoy the studio. The Metropolitan Avenue M-line metro direct to Manhattan is a short 10 minute walk away.
The property has excellent wifi and a very good a/c system and dehumidifier.
We had a wonderful week staying at Dorina’s studio and she is a truly exceptional, friendly, knowledgable and accommodating host.
