Clean, charming home
Lourdes and Romeo were incredible hosts. They were very helpful, accommodating, and friendly. They went so far as to purchase dinner for us our first evening in town. They also provided us with a tour around the neighborhood so that we would know where to catch the bus and where to get onto the subway and assisted us in purchasing our metro passes. The home is perfect for 8 guests:-)
Thank you for your generous review. We are glad you all enjoyed the New York experience.. Come visit again soon. Lourdes

Comfortable Home
This home is very easily accessible from the Central Expressway and to St John's University. The owners are very hospitable and gracious. They contacted us before our arrival to see if they could pick up any needed supplies. Upon arrival, we were already stocked with milk, juice, eggs, coffee, etc, saving us a late night trip to the store. They were accommodating on the arrival time as well and when we had some friends stop by, they offered extra bottled waters and set-up the outside seating for us. Because they live on the property, they are almost always there to assist or just to sit and chat if you like. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes and cookware as well as condiments/spices. The back yard is big and has multiple table/chair options to enjoy in nice weather. Overall, it suited our needs very well.
What a wonderful thing to say. Thank you Jill for your glowing review. You and your family are anazing people and, wow! you really treated our house as if it was yours leaving it spic and span. It was our pleasure meeting you and your family and I hope you will visit us again soon.

Great Stay!!
Lourdes and Romeo go out of there way to make sure you have everything you need to accomplish whatever you have planned for your stay.
Thank you John. We are glad we have met your expectation. If you are planning to come again next year, maybe we can join the group to watch the race. By the way, I need your address to send a check for $40.00 as payment for the unused funds from the metro cards left on the table. Or shall we say, save it for next year hoping you and your group will come for the game again?
Take care and please extend my regards to your wife and the whole gang. Lourdes

Wonderful location
.very happy with this location, it has the highway very closed by and it has shopping area also not to far. The rooms in this house where all huge, very comfortable. This location is perfect for families, guarantee you going to love this house
We stayed for 4 nights. The accommodations were lovely and Lourdes the owner was warm gracious and couldn't have been kinder. The location was great and easy access to NYC and Long Island. House was clean, had everything you need, and accommodated 7 people. Would definitely stay again. Highly recommend.
Could not have asked for a better review. Thank you Aimee. Please keep in touch.. Best regards to you and your family.
By the way, the food was great and delicious! Thanks again.

Charming Home with amazing hospitality!
Lourdes was an amazing host. At first I didn't realize that she will be staying in the basement and was hesitant to stay initially, but I am glad she was as she is an A1, 5 Star host.
Days stayed: 9
Pros:
- Amazing person, fun to talk to.
- Willing to help 24 hours.
- House was super clean.
- She was willing to do laundry any given day.
- Even got us fruits and bottled water.
- I have stayed many places and clean bed lining is a must. She had them super clean, no bugs or anything.
- Mattress/pillows were really comfortable and fairly new; no smells/odors or stains on them.
- Best part was Window AC in every bedroom; my mom and dad are old and are always cold. They were able to adjust the a/c how ever they wanted without bothering others.
- Huge clean backyard
- Wifi/ Cable etc worked just fine.
cons
- Needs an AC in living room; but if you are patient and leave the dining area A/C on with the fan in living area it will eventually get cooler.
- Needs to upgrade the electric system; when ever we used an Iron with the AC the electric phase would trip and only Lourdes or her husband could reset the switch from electric board. But she never got annoyed or irritated.
Besides that only good things.... :)
Next time if I have any occasions in NY; I will contact her in a heart beat!
Thank you so much Lourdes for having us.
Hi Salha-thank you for your kind and very informative review. You really took the time to do the write up and we really appreciate that. Your point on the electric is well taken and we have made upgrade since . We hope you will stay with us again on your next visit to New York.
Sincerely,
Lourdes

Wonderful Weekend w/ Extended Family
My family of 8 rented this lovely home for a long weekend. The location was excellent; easy to find and very convenient to everything. The neighborhood is nice and neat. There were ample beds in the 4 bedrooms, a small dining and kitchen area (no dishwasher) but very well stocked. We were provided with coffee, juice, milk, eggs, bread, bottled water; everything we needed for breakfast! It was great having 2 bathrooms; but both have issues with running toilets. If you don't jiggle the handle, you'll get a reminder from the owners (who stay in a basement apartment.) Behind the home there is a large beautiful yard with gated entrance, outdoor furniture, BBQ grills and plantings. There is plenty of parking; we had 3 of 4 spaces. Our group was all ages and stayed out/up all hours. The owners were very kind and accomodating to our needs. This is a great place for large families!
Thank you very much Jeanine for your glowing review. As far as the plumbing issues, we have since fixed them. We are happy to know that you and your group enjoyed your stay with us. Hoping to see you again.
Have a wonderful summer and lots of fun tripping. Lourdes

Très bel accueil chaleureux
Lourdes was really nice and helpful. I will only suggest that she is more discrete when she wants to make rounds around the house
Anything you would ask her she would help you with. Available anytime of the day!
Very good place to rent, very clean and beautiful family house!
Thank you Judith. That was nice of you. Re checking around the house, I mean outside for security reasons especially the entrance doors. Make sure they are locked.
IWished you stayed more, but I hope you will come and stay with us again soon.

Chamring, comfortable home. Great location- delightful experience
Was our first stay using HomeAway. The owner went WAY out of her way to make sure our stay was a pleasant and happy one. Rooms were very spacious, everything we needed was there. She even went and got some basic groceries for us so we would have coffee, eggs & milk when we arrived. Very nice backyard, cozy & private with lots of sun made a great place to have breakfast outdoors in the morning. We were there with extended family for a graduation- had plenty of room, really nice size living & dining room where we could all be together & relax. Like being at our own home. Can't say enough about how helpful and kind the owner is-- she is one of the nicest people we've ever met in New York! We stressed the showers- had 8 people there at once- showers and hot water worked out great (not all hotels can live up to that). Highly recommend. Access is very easy to expressways, LGA just a few minutes away- JFK very convenient as well.
Thank you for your nice comment. I'm glad you all enjoyed your stay. Looking forward to have you again on your next visit to NY.

Cozy, Comfy home...
This home is exactly as depicted by the photos on Homeaway. The neighborhood is in very charming and suburban location in Queens. There is easy access to the highway, and within 15 minutes you can be in Manhattan. The backyard is awesome, it is well manicured and has a grill and new outdoor furniture! The weather was not the greatest so we were unable to enjoy the backyard as we would have liked to. The home is a bit dated, however, it was very clean and comfortable. The only drawback was with the showers; if someone was taking a shower in the downstairs bathroom, the water in the upstairs bathroom was reduced to a trickle. The homeowner has acknowledged that and said it will be fixed for future guests. Lourdes is a sweet and delightful lady, and was ready to assist with whatever our needs were. I was very impressed with her attentiveness.
I would ABSOLUTELY recommend this home to others.
Thank you for you kind and generous comment. I'm so glad I was able to meet your expectations and hope that you willconsider booking again your next trip with us as well as recommending our humble home to your friends. I would say, you and your group are excellent guests who treated our home as if it is your home. Someone every homeowner would welcome as their guest.
Thank you again and please stay in touch.
Your host,
Lourdes
