The apartment is well situated in Queens district, near major metro lines that can take you to the center of Manhattan in 20-30 minutes everyday. The flat was very clean, with everything you need for a stay in NYC. It's not big, but if you come to visit the city you will spend most of your time outside and the flat has everything you need, a living room equiped with a computer, a sofa and a table, a kitchen with a massive fridge and a microwave, and a small bedroom with a heater or air-conditioning if needed, plus a good wifi connection. The area is quite friendly and there's an excellent Colombian restaurant at the corner of Roosevelt Avenue and 80th street we recommend (Cositas Ricas).
Vincent is an excellent host, available when needed, very kind and helpful, regularly asking if you need anything. He even took us to the airport when we left, it's really appreciated when you have heavy luggage. He clearly deserves the top ratings he got. So if you plan to visit NYC and want to keep your housing budget to a good level, it's the perfect place to stay. I would not hesitate to come back at Vincent's place if I decide to visit the city again!
