Great option

We were happy with our stay. The check in process was smooth, and the host was very responsive as we had questions. We found the walk to the F to be a little longer than 5 minutes, but is still convenient.

Queens College Graduation

Perfect location in a quiet neighborhood with close proximity to airports and Queens College. Simple and comfortable furnishings. Nice living room lounging sofas with WiFi TV for logging in on your viewing apps. Comfortable beds and very clean bathrooms!

NY Trip - Memorial Service

The home is lovely, looks newly remodeled and nicely done. Beds were all comfortable. Nice to have a driveway to park the car. Was ideally located for our trip. There was a smoke detector beeping in one of the bedrooms and when notified the issue was corrected quickly. Enjoyed our stay.

House was great - process was awful

When we showed up the address we were given was incorrect. We only very luckily were able to get the landlords phone # from a neighbor. We then got the correct address and went to the apt. The outside of the apt was littered with trash and the driveway was blocked with garbage cans. All that said - the inside was spotless and exactly as expected. One note there were no garbage bags or paper towels or anything else one might expect so bring your own.

Delivery Driver Fun

Expect to be woken up, and kept up, at 1AM by delivery driver parties connected to your building. Owner here promised it wouldn’t happen again - happens again the following night. Not a great look. Honestly, wouldn’t recommend. Unless owner clamps down tomorrow on those fine scholarly gentlemen connected to your building.

Wohnung ok. Laute Nachbarn.

Zunächst mal gab es zwei unterschiedliche Adressen vom Gastgeber und von fewo-direkt.de. konnte zwar geklärt werden, aber das geht so nicht.Die Wohnung an und für sich war ok. Eines der Badezimmer ist nur über eines der Schlafzimmer erreichbar. Handtücher waren nicht sauber, haben wir selbst nach Ankunft gewaschen.Die Decke zu den oberen Nachbarn besteht aus Holz, daher ist jeder Schritt und Gespräche zu hören. Die Nachbarn hatten mehrfach Besuch, so dass es sehr laut wurde, auch über die Ruhezeit hinaus bis 1.30 am. Der Nachbar wurde von uns darauf hingewiesen. Das brachte aber keine Änderung des Verhaltens. Ich würde hier 2x von Ruhe störendem Lärm sprechen. Deshalb würde ich diese Wohnung nicht wieder nehmen.

The place was very nice. Heat stays up in the rooms vs in the living room but a space heater was given to make up for this.

Great for family or friend groups

We needed a large place for our family to stay for a wedding. This was perfect. It was spacious enough for 5 adults to stay comfortably and we were able to entertain family and friends after the wedding. The kitchen is beautifully renovated and there’s a dining table that seats 8 comfortably. The neighborhood is nice and quiet and there is parking for one car in the driveway. Parking was a little tight on the street due to construction But would definitely recommend to others!

Nice accommodation

We enjoyed our stay at this VRBO. It was spacious, clean and well appointed. We came to NY for the US Open. While the home met the needs of our group, it was not as easy to get to the tennis center as we had hoped. That being said, it was a nice place.

Great place

This place was great! A really nice alternative to a hotel! We really enjoyed our stay. The neighborhood was great! Very quick assistance when needed. Our only complaint was could really use some new pillows. If available will probably try to stay here next year for our trip.

Home away from Home

Nested on a quite residential block was an oasis. We had more than enough space to accommodate us. The host was very helpful with the Check-in process. The only issues we had was, there were alot of families that lived within the house, so alor of foot activities going on throughout the day and night.

Spacious Apartment

My family of 8 had a wonderful stay here. There was lots of space to accommodate us all. The kitchen is fully stocked with cookware to make meals at home. Having a designated driveway to park in was a nice addition, even with a 220V plug for an EV charger.

Lux all new 4 bedroom Jamaica Queens

Very clean. Nicely renovated, and close enough to walk to the subway. Description is accurate, and does state this is an apartment, however, it fails to mention that there are 4 families living there and the soundproofing is next to none. People just walking upstairs is loud, not to mention if there’s any yelling or kids playing loudly. Very nice apartment, very attentive owner and manager, but know you will be sharing it closely (like connecting doors close).

VRBO rental home review

It was the perfect fit for us in terms of location and functionality. We enjoyed staying very much; it was like being on vacation in a hotel, but local. KK, who was in charge of the apt., was available at any time, responsive, and very helpful.
