I had a long stay (1 month here) and overall it was very good. No major issues. Wifi was very fast, the apartment was clean when I arrived, and the host was responsive, although her replies were direct and short. She allowed me to check in an hour or so earlier. Very safe, and walkable to groceries, pharmacies, a laudromat, and restaurants. Astoria Park is also very close. The room is small, but has an A/C + hearing unit. Towels and toiletries are not provided as mentioned, so I had to buy a bath towel and toilet paper when I arrived.
My only issue here was with the housemates. There was a guy who had stayed here since October 2022 and he smoked pot every day, which made the entire place smell. I didn’t realize this was allowed. There was another girl who came from Germany and sometimes she nor the other person did not wash their dishes.
Overall nice apartment and responsive host, but be mindful that your housemates are a luck of the draw and you will need to communicate with them.
