Property was fine but I think host doesn't have enough experience renting her property she was constantly in our business since she live downstairs. Place was not clean, refrigerator was dirty we ask for another roll of toilet paper and she refused so we went and bought our own. From the beginning she didnt want us to stay since VRBO has not paid her from previous occasions cousing us a two hour conversation before she can agree for us to stay. I would think twice before I can ever if I ever stay there. She also monitoring with all her cameras, she knew what we were eating even when the door were close giving us the impression that she was watching us all the time absolutley inappropiate no privacy.

Did not like that the property owner ask my child to take off shoes and to walk lightly. Unbelievable dont talk to my 7 yr old child talk to me . I didn't spend not one night in that place. Light in door entry didn't work. I deserve a full refund.

Charming Loft and. Wonderful Host

Our stay at Farida’s loft was great! The location was great for us as we stayed attended the US Open tennis. You can see the care that Farida puts into her place as the outside entry is so beautiful and inviting. Inside, the loft is as described. The beds are comfortable, even the futon under the loft bed. There was ample hot water in the shower, and Farida also provided free coffee, tea, water and snacks. We also met Farida and she was wonderful to talk to and gave us the privacy we desired. The check in and entry instructions are very clearly outlined and although the electronic lock is tricky at first,if you trust the process, it’s quite simple. The kitchen space is quite tight, but we knew that when we booked, but good for light breakfasts. For the price,and location, we would stay here again.

Exceeded My Expectations! :)

Farida was very responsive from the moment I booked my reservation to my check-in and check-out. I was unfamiliar with Elmont, NY, but Farida provided information on the LIRR station stop and Uber/Lyft access. Farida's loft was in a quiet neighborhood and was accessible to restaurants and grocery stores a few blocks away. Her front and backyard were well-manicured. The house was very secure, with a palm and code security system. As a solo woman traveler, I appreciated this feature. I felt so safe! The loft was spacious and tidy, and the description was accurate. Farida's loft showed her attention to ensuring guests had an enjoyable stay, from the restaurant flyers to complimentary snacks to an information bulletin board. The loft had central air, which made the stay comfortable. This was a wonderful feature since New York was experiencing a heat wave during my stay. The bed was very comfortable, and I slept well. As wonderful as Farida's loft is, she is equally as wonderful! Farida is a beautiful spirit. She is very personable and attentive. She extended herself to ensure I had a wonderful stay! I stayed one night at Farida's loft, but I plan to book her loft for a longer stay in the near future!

Disliked: Communication

The home was lovely and clean and the amenities were great but the sleeping accommodations were not ideal - we felt like an afterthought. We didn’t get our entry code until we had been standing outside the house with our luggage for several minutes, though it was over an hour after the specified check in time and our trying to contact her (which made us nervous that we had been dropped off at the wrong house). We also did not have adequate bedding. After a few hours she replied to our request but we had already gone to bed after a long, international flight, so we didn’t sleep great. No soap in the bathroom (just hand sanitizer). We paid a lot more for one night so are a bit disappointed.

Cute, quiet getaway place

Fiance and I stayed for 3 nights and loved the cute loft. Farida is a great host and had the place stocked with any needed toiletries and had a mini fridge, microwave & oven. The private deck outside is a nice touch as well. We loved the area too, close enough to catch public transportation to the city. We definitely recommend the space for anyone looking for a getaway or business trip. 10/10.

Of Mice and Men

The first few days of my stay were fine. Location is ok, neighborhood is nice. The house is on a busy road. Not too walkable to anything, such as dining, entertainment as the roads are busy and no direct path. Took Uber to LIRR daily to go into the city $10 per trip. There is no lighting on the exterior of the house so if you get back in the evening there is no porch light and makes it hard to see. There’s a situation with the light to the stairwell and if you don’t have the switches on the exact setting it doesn’t work. The first 3 nights I slept fine despite hearing scuffling in the attic space. The 4th night I watched a mouse climb from the wall. I contacted VRBO about the incident and they sent a message to the owner. The owner never responded and due to my long stay in the city that day I was not able to connect with the owner. The next night I was so exhausted from the non-sleep the night before I made it through for an early departure to catch my flight and I sent a message to the owner. The owner was so worried about how much an exterminator would cold she offered no compensation for the last 2 nights and VRBO didn’t seem to care about the situation. I’ve waited a week to hear the results of her extermination inspection and nothing. So don’t expect any response from this owner if you have an issue and she implies the story was made up after admitting she’s had other creatures in her attic in the past and how expensive it is to take care of.

Very nice, quiet place

This was a very nice, clean, quiet home in a safe neighborhood. We walked to breakfast and dinner, and to the laundromat and always felt safe. We went to the LIRR station at UBS Arena and caught the train into Manhattan very easily. Farida was very helpful.

About the host

Hosted by Farida

I’m passionate about traveling and have visited many countries, often staying in Airbnbs. However, I noticed that many places lacked basic comforts like a makeup mirror, and the beds were often uncomfortable. That’s why I decided to become a host myself. I believe that, while having a kitchen is nice, a comfortable bed is essential for a good night’s sleep. I want my guests to wake up feeling refreshed and ready to start the day.

Why they chose this property

I love that it is very close to one of the major airport in NY, and although I am in more of a peaceful area but still close to the city.

What makes this property unique

As if stepping into a realm of majestic serenity, you find yourself enveloped in an atmosphere where tranquility reigns supreme.
