Host was available to check in at agreed time. I wish the AC would work as it was one of the hottest and most humid day during our stay. Ashiv gave us wifi access later in the evening, but having it on arrival in the morning would have been nice. Some towels, soap. and shampoo would be nice to add to the value of this listing. There is no privacy through the kitchen window as it is open to the side walkway of the house without any curtain or window shade. Otherwise, host was very cordial, polite, and responsive to all my questions.
Jun 27, 2019^_^
Jun 27, 2019The apartment is located in a quiet neighborhood. And Ashiv was very kind and helpful.
Jun 27, 2019Great place, great host :)
Jun 27, 2019Ashiv was a very helpful host, and the apartment had everything we needed for a pleasant stay. The location of the apartment was worth mentioning: it was located about two blocks away from M and R subway stations, and was on Austin st, a very walkable shopping/dining street with a lot of interesting restaurants, shops, and bars.
Jun 27, 2019Good
Jun 27, 2019It was a great experience staying at Ashiv's place. The place was clean and comfy, and Ashiv and his family were very friendly.
Jun 27, 2019A great place where we felt safe. Close to the subway station and about 40mins subway from downtown Manhattan. The trains can be a bit noisy at night and might bother light sleepers. Ashiv was very responsive and made sure our stay was warm and welcoming. Definitely recommend staying here :)
Jun 27, 2019Great Location. 24 hour grocery store right across the street. However, place can accommodate maximum 3 people. Reasonably priced. You can hear trains at night as track is close to the house, so be aware if you sleep light. Overall, a good experience
Jun 27, 2019Perfect place for what I was looking for. Safe, convenient location right around the corner from the subway station. Was able to catch the express train into Manhattan. Ashiv and his family were wonderful hosts, and I would defiantly stay with them again the next time I need to visit NY.
Jun 27, 2019Хорошее место. Рядом метро и LIRR. До центра Манхэттена 30 минут. Квартира чистая, удобная. Все есть для деловой поездки. Хозяева очень доброжелательные и милые люди. Рекомендую для людей, любящих спокойствие.
Jun 27, 2019Ashiv and his family were great hosts. When I had any questions he answered them quickly. The apartment was great and perfect for myself and my son. It was in a great (Website hidden by Airbnb) close to the subway to take you into Manhatten. There is a laundromat right opposite as well as a shop to get any food and bits you need. About a 10 min walk on Austin streets are lots more shops and restaurants. Would definitely recommend this apartment ...perfect area as close to everything. When we visit New York next this would be our first choice of apartments to stay in. Thanks xx
Jun 27, 2019I live in New York myself but needed a place over night. This is an ideal location for couples. Transportation is near along with shopping areas. The neighborhood was peaceful and friendly. Ashiv was very kind and helpful during the stay. I recommend.
Jun 27, 2019Quaint little place, in walking distance to public transportation, shops, cafes and restaurants. Always felt safe.
Jun 27, 2019This was a perfect location for us while in Forest Hills. The host was very responsive and helpful to us regarding inquiries we had about the security system and thermostat.We would definitely stay here again.
Jun 27, 2019Ashiv's place is close to the M train making getting around very easy! It's a solid spot but nothing too fancy.
Jun 27, 2019Ashiv was helpful and responsive. He was also kind to let us keep our luggage as our flight was only later in the day.
Jun 27, 2019Ashiv was a great host who took the time to install and explain to us the August lock and who was always very quickly available whenever there were questions. The place offers everything you need for a short trip, the neighborhood is quite and convenient (with a 24h store right across the street). If you're here by car it may be hard to find parking, like anywhere in New York.
Jun 27, 2019Professional, easy check in and out, and convenient location.
Jun 27, 2019I must say it turned out to be a great place, and Ashiv was very welcoming.
Jun 27, 2019Ashiv was very friendly, always responded quickly and made sure our stay was comfortable, safe & fun.
Jun 27, 2019Die Unterkunfr ist nicht zu empfehlen. Die Lage und der Preis sind zwar OK, aber der Kontakt mit dem Gastgeber klappte nur teilweise gut, Checkin war kompliziert (Code stimmte, aber Tür war von innen mit einem Sicherheitsschloss verriegelt, mussten für viel Geld den Vermieter anrufen), Handtücher zu wenig und rochen modrig, in der Küche schlechte Ausstattung (Plastikteller, kein komplettes Gedeck, keine Kaffeemaschine), Geschirr vom Vorbenutzer stand noch rum. Nie mehr!
Jun 27, 2019Apartment is a basement with separate entrance. Overall very clean. Everything we needed was provided. Quite spacious with lots of room to put our bags and clothes. Air conditioner and heating in both bedroom and common area. If you are a light sleeper, sound from outside and ground level can be heard inside. Parking hard to find, we had to circle around for a while but found a spot in the local neighbourhood we could leave our car for a few days. Overall we were very satisfied and had a good stay.
Jun 27, 2019all good
Jun 27, 2019I would recommend staying. At Ashiv's place. The trains do make some noise but it didn't bother us. Great bed area. Could have been cleaner though.
Jun 27, 2019Nothing fancy but a pleasant enough place to stay in a quiet, safe neighborhood. Convenient to shops and mass transit. Easy check-in and check-out.
Jun 27, 2019Ashiv is very nice and trustful. The place is very nice and clean and was suited to our needs. The only downside is that it's a basement so there aren't real windows which can be a little claustrophobic for some people.
Jun 27, 2019Ashiv's place has many selling key points that future guests/travelers can consider and would really love. It is in a very safe neighborhood, we feel safe walking even in the wee hours. There is a 24-hr convenient store just in front of Ashiv's place which is very useful whenever you need something. It is really close to Subway station M and R going to Manhattan, it is just like a 2-3min walk. And also bus routes, though we never use bus in our trips. This place is very convenient, aside from it is located in Austin St, you have your own private room and your private bathroom and that's what we are looking for, most of the places I have looked were shared baths. Basic needs like soaps, shampoo, tissue, towels are provided. There were so many restaurants (Asian, Peruvian, Mexican etc), food stores, 99cents store and a mall just in Queens Ave. We just have some issues that I addressed to the host and he assured that it will be changed. Ashiv is a very nice guy, he made sure that we are ok with our stay. He went down to see us and to personally say goodbye the night before we checked out. It was an easy check in/check out and I suggest that you download the August lock before you check in. We had a good time staying at Ashiv's place and we'll still choose his place whenever we have a chance to go back to New York. Thanks Ashiv!
Jun 27, 2019This place is close to the train and has a 24 hour shop directly across from it. Overall, a great value.
Jun 27, 2019It is well located, near 67 ave subway station (few mins walk) and forest hill 71 ave station (11 mins walk). takes about 40 mins to time sq by local train, 30 mins by express train. but recently there is some train service change, it is not easy to figure out the train route. do not rely o (Website hidden by Airbnb) map entirely, better to use MTA website and pay attention to the notice posted at the train station. We took Uber from Sheraton New York Time Square (on 7th Ave) to Ashiv’s place, it was $28. It was also $28 from Ashiv’s place to JFK airport. there is a local grocery store right outside the house called Austin Farm. extremely convenient for getting snacks, fruits and bottled waters. It felt like a safe neighborhood. There is a police station on the same street. we also saw a farmers market on a weekend morning while we were on the way to the subway station. we didn’t explore the surroundings but there are definitely some restaurants (pizza, sushi, Chinese) nearby. We didn't check in until 11pm, the fact that we could enter the house with passcode (instead of physical key) was great. We haven't met Ashiv in person, but he responds almost immediately every time which we really appreciate. It helps us to plan our trip smoothly. The house is fully furnished with couch, tv, table, drawers, two big closets (hangers included), bed, stove, microwave, big trash can. petty much everything you need is there, except iron and a full size mirror. the house could use a bit cleanliness, other than that, everything is as expected. We found the bed quite comfy, my husband and I slept very well for the three nights we were there. the house is very close to train line, the noise didn't bother us, but if you are a light sleeper it might be a problem.
Jun 27, 2019ABOUT & LOCATION: Great location in a safe and quiet neighborhood. It's a 6 minute walk to the subway station, coffee shops, and stores. There's even a 24 hour market across the street which is so convinient. About a 13 minute walk away you have a full avenue of restaurants, bakeries, and shops. BEST THING: The best part was the easy access to the subway station. It made it the process to get into the city even that much more easier. REVIEW OF HOST: Ashiv was a great host and let me check in early. He was very responsive prior to the trip with any questions. He also checked in with me the second to last day to ensure I had no questions or problems so far. PRICE: The pictures for the place are just as it is in person. Basic necessities and needs are met, and for the price it is a good choice to stay if you are keeping conscious of your budget.
Jun 27, 2019Ashiv's self-contained apartment is in a very secure and excellent location in Queens. Within a five minute walk is a subway station to take you to Manhattan or the airport. Even closer is a very convenient supermarket that seems to open early to late, and there are plenty of reasonable restaurants within walking distance. The apartment itself has everything you would require for a comfortable self-catered stay, long or short. Ashiv is very hospitable, communicated promptly, and did not hesitate to give assistance when required. A big thumbs up from us!
Jun 27, 2019Great place to stay! Very close to the subway. Ashiv communicated very well and was very quick to provide anything needed. Great host! Would definitely stay again
Jun 27, 2019It's very easy to get to the main subway and a very quiet neighborhood. There is also a nice 24hr supermarket directly across the street.
Jun 27, 2019Really enjoyed my stay. Ashiv was a great host and the apartment was clean and amazing.
Jun 27, 2019Perfect spot in a great neighborhood! Will definitely go back!
Jun 27, 2019A basement not so clean, the towels were rather smelly
Jun 27, 2019Ashiv was very helpful before, during and after the stay and provides a lot of amenities (i.e. kitchenware, toileteries etc). The location is excellent for any traveller as there is easy access to 2 subway stations (67 Av & 71 Av) with a total of 4 lines, so we rarely had any issues getting back at all. It is suitable for 1 or 2 guests over a few nights, but I found that the noise from upstairs made it difficult to sleep past 8AM and it wasn't properly cleaned when we arrived. This was resolved quickly by Ashiv, but the bathroom has definitely seen better days. Noise from outside wasn't too bad, it's just mainly dealing with a lot of footsteps right above you in the morning.
Jun 27, 2019Highly recommend you stay at Ashiv's place! Great location. This place was perfect for our needs :)
Jun 27, 2019Ashiv was a great host. It was my first time booking through the app and he was very helpful. The place is close to the subway station, Starbucks, Target, and there's a 24 hour market across the street. Would definitely recommend this place.
Jun 27, 2019The apartment was private and excellent. The location was great amd the hosts were very friendly amd helpfull. Would recommend to anyone
Jun 27, 2019Great value for money - Ashiv and his wife were excellent hosts. Location was very convenient for subway and local store which was literally 3 seconds away.
Jun 27, 2019Todo perfecto,bien comunicado con el metro,buen vecindario,tiendas y restaurantes cerca, apartamento muy acogedor y calentito y los anfitriones muy amables.Nos han dejado hacer el checkout a última hora de la tarde! Muy buena experiencia
Jun 27, 2019Great location. Ashiv and Abhilasha's place is very clean and nicely decorated. They are lovely hosts and very helpful. I would stay again.
Jun 27, 2019The apartment is very clean and is located right across from the deli where you can get everything you need. It’s also in a walking distance to shopping, good restaurants and public transportation. Host was very quick in responding to all of our questions and needs.
Jun 27, 2019The place was great! Everything advertised was accurate. It is a nice, comfortable modern space great for couples. I recommend this place to anyone. Communication was also on point.
Jun 27, 2019Great location and had everything I needed for my visit. Perfect set up for visiting for several days.
Jun 27, 2019Highly recommended
Jun 27, 2019The place was clean, hosts are easy to reach. There is a local grocery store across the street and just under 5min walk you can pretty much access the restaurants, cafes and other establishments. The subway train was so close which is a big plus if your in NY. If you’re planning on cooking during your stay just inquire to the hosts what tools and equipments they have in their kitchen that you might need during your stay. You’ll get your privacy in this place.
Jun 27, 2019Highly Recommend.
Jun 27, 2019This place is amazing. Neighbourhood is safe and friendly. The place itself is cozy and comfortable. Highly recommended to everyone.
Jun 27, 2019Passei 25 dias na casa de Ashiva e Abhilasha. Encontrei um lugar limpo, organizado e confortável onde pude me sentir em casa. Tive bastante privacidade e eles foram muito rápidos e disponíveis quando precisei. O bairro é calmo, seguro e tem vários serviços próximos, como restaurantes, mercados, lojas, lavanderias e metrô. Definitivamente recomendo.
Jun 27, 2019Good value and location, very close to the subway in central Queens (about a 45 minute ride from Manhattan). It's a basement apartment, so very little natural light, but that also meant that it was nice and dark at night, which is often difficult to achieve in New York. The kitchen was very sparsely equipped, but it included most of the necessities. Overall a clean, safe, well located apartment for a reasonable price
Jun 27, 2019Host was nice, close to restaurants and stores, not bad for the price if you are going just to sleep Like we went to visit family.
Jun 27, 2019Excelente acomodação. Bem localizado, 2 quadras da estação de metr (Website hidden by Airbnb) possui uma pequena grocery store na calçada em frente. Lugar espaçoso com todos os itens básicos inclusos (toalhas, pratos, panelas...). Respostas rápidas por parte do Host e check-in tranquilo com senha usando a August Lock. Recomendo!
Jun 27, 2019Espaço confortável e limpo porém dar para ouvir os passos da casa de cima.
Jun 27, 2019Ashiv and Abhilasha's basement was a 15 minute walk from public transportation in a safe neighborhood in Queens. Across the street there was also a 24 hour market which was very convenient. We are used to warm/hot weather and when we requested a blanket and help with the heater, our hosts responded immediately and came down to help us out. We felt safe, the hosts responded promptly to all of our messages, our hosts were nice, and it was a great value. If you are particularly sensitive to noise, know that you are staying in a basement and that you can sometimes hear the train nearby.
Jun 27, 2019Nossa estadia foi muito tranquila. O bairro é calmo e muito bem localizado no Queens próximo a lojas, restaurantes e lanchonetes. Fica próximo da estação de metrô também. Ashiv e Abhilasha são muito atenciosos e amigáveis. Nós recomendamos.
Jun 27, 2019The place is conveniently located close to the subway. The owners are friendly and easy to communicate with.
Jun 27, 2019Ashiv and Abhilasha were wonderful hosts. They made sure we are comfortable, and checked in on us. Location was great! Quiet and safe neighborhood.
Jun 27, 2019Netter Vermieter/ in Subway und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten in nächster Umgebung Probleme wurden schnell gelöst Für einen Aufenthalt in New York ist die Wohnung geeignet
Jun 27, 2019Great at communication, and the area is very convenient!
Jun 27, 2019Lovely place, very close to the subway, and the shop across the street has everything you might need arriving late at night like I did. They were attentive hosts, and were kind enough to let me get something I’d forgotten mailed to the address. Would definitely stay again if I’m in the area.
Jun 27, 2019Wonderful location in a great neighborhood. We loved the convenient little store right across the street!
Jun 27, 2019very nice accommodations, private and felt very safe. Super close to the subway and walking distance to restaurants and entertainment.
Jun 27, 2019A good appartment in a quite neighbourhood. Close to subway and little market across the road.
Jun 27, 2019This place was great! Spacious, convenient, and in a nice neighborhood.
Jun 27, 2019The apartment is very close to the subway. The market across the street is convenient to get water/fruits/milk..etc. Checking process was very fast. The apartment has things you need like towel/soaps/kitchen utensils. Comfortable place.
Jun 27, 2019Die Unterkunft ist so wie beschrieben. Die Lage ist top man ist direkt an der subway, die Gegend ist sehr schön und wir haben uns wohl gefühlt. Der Kontakt mit den Gastgebern war total unkompliziert und es wurden direkt unsere Fragen beantwortet. Das einzige ist, dass die Wohnung sehr hellhörig ist und man jeden Schritt von oben hören kann.
Jun 27, 2019Great place, clean and close to everything, literally from the moment I walked in it was like our own little private hotel, plus there is a convenience store across the street open 24 hours a day, seriously couldn’t ask for a better stay, thank you!
Jun 27, 2019The apt has its own entrance and it’s in a super convenient and safe part of Forest Hills. Walking distance to all the shops, subway, and restaurants. The apt itself was furnished with all the basics and had just what we needed for our stay. There was some noise of the train passing by and the occasional noise of footsteps upstairs, but otherwise it was a great stay! I would highly recommend it for anyone visiting NYC on a budget!
Jun 27, 2019Awesome place to stay. Close to everything in forest hills and subway stations. I would stay here again.
Jun 27, 2019Ashiv and Abhilasha were by far the best AirBnB hosts we have had. They were willing to be flexible with check in and check out time. They also would check on us regularly if we needed anything. The place was very clean and it is located near the subway and plenty of amenities. If I'm back in Queens I would not hesitate to book with them again!
Jun 27, 2019Amazing place close to subway & minimart. Kind host that helped me unlock the door at check in. Would stay again!
Jun 27, 2019This listing was a lovely, simple space. Easy directions to follow for checkin . Great location.*** Hosts were respectful and the home was true to the photos. Thanks for a great stay.
Jun 27, 2019Thank you, Ashiv and Abhilasha, for your hospitality! The place was exactly what we expected. Some noises from the train and walking upstairs occurred, but we are not light sleepers:) I bought earplugs and slept like a child. Special thanks for making the place very warm- it was necessary in December weather conditions! It was easy to take a shower and come out to a very warm room/bathroom. My favorite feature was the heated step in front of the bathroom:) I used it for drying and heating the bathroom rugs. The location is just great! 2-3 minutes walk to the subway station, and you are in Central Park in 40 minutes, for instance (straight line- “R” train). Lots of awesome restaurants around, and of course, the convenience store 30 seconds away from the house was very helpful! Overall, it was a great deal for the price. Future tenants, do not expect perfection at everything. Things happen, and we all have to realize the whole family lives upstairs. They walk, they make some sounds, but it is normal. Nevertheless, the guys are very polite, responsive and understanding. Thank you for making our vacation in NY unforgettable!
Jun 27, 2019Great place, great hosts
