Fantastic breakfast, exceptionally clean, wonderful furnishings. The surrounding neighborhood may seem a little sketchy, but it was actually very quiet. Highly recommended.

We stayed 9 days at Danutas B&B and we really was treated well at the breakfast table! Our "host" was very cosy and hospital -we all feelt it as an oase in the raoring Big Apple, so it was a charming spot to rest in during the nights.

We recently returned from an east coast trip. Several days were spent in Staten Island and my husband researched and booked a three night stay at the Victorian Bed and Breakfast of Staten Island. We found our room to be spacious, comfortable, and lovely. The bath next door had a superior shower and all of the comforts of home. Breakfast was consistently excellent with fresh, delicious fruit, granola, toast and eggs. Danuta, a warm, interesting woman, is a pleasure. Our experience exceeded expectations.

Lovely clean rooms, along with a very a gracious hostess made for a great stay. Not far from the free ferry, with parking costing $5-7 per day. Recommend this B&B for those who like to get away from the NYC pace and noise. Nice quiet neighborhood and tasty breakfast too!

Me and my parents stayed from sometime in July 2006 for about 6 nights, and I've gotta say it was the VERY BEST TIME I've had at a B&B it was our first time at B&Bs I stayed in another ones afterwards in other cities and nothing compares to Danuta's at all. Her place is immaculate and cozy, the house is so beutiful that takes your breath away and she is so detail oriented that is reflected in every single piece of furniture and her service... she makes you feel so pampered that you just don't want to ever leave! Thanks Danuta!!! Greetings from Naples Florida ( Dafne ) and Mexico city ( Miguel and Maru)

My husband and I stayed at Victorian Bed and Breakfast from 5/11/07 through 5/16/07. This is our first experience with a Bed and Breakfast and I have to say that I believe Danuta has thoroughly ruined us for any other Bed and Breakfast's. Our experience there vastly surpassed all our expectations. We were looked after as if we were family! Our room was cozy and comfortable. Our bed was just right and our down comforter and pillows kept us comfy and warm. From the moment you walk in you feel "at home." As for the breakfasts...they were simply amazing. Danuta sets such a beautiful table that you almost don't want to eat the food! The house is furnished all in antiques and we ate off antique dishes, drank from period glassware and even ate with real silverware. Danuta is an excellent cook and an exceptional hostess. It was difficult to tear ourselves away from her each day for our trek to the city. The bus stops at the corner and drops you off right at the Staten Island Ferry which gives you a free ride into the city. Definitely the best tourist bargain available! There is no better bargain to be had in New York City, period, end of statement. We highly recommend this Bed and Breakfast to anyone visiting New York City. We live in California and came out for our daughter's college graduation, but we are already plotting a return trip to the Big Apple and we will stay at Victorian Bed and Breakfast. We can't wait!

ear reader, these lines are aimed to share with you the experiences we had at Danuta's Victorian Bed and Breakfast in Staten Island. Danuta's house is about 40min taxi drive away from New York JFK airport at normal traffic conditions and lies in a green, quiet and safe neighborhood with many other villas. For those aiming to see Manhattan, the bus stop is just 1 minute away with direct connection (approx. 15 min to the Staten Island Ferry), small shops and restaurants can be found on the main street near Danutas' house. We felt particularly at home with Danuta as she shared her beautiful house with us, along with all the history the walls (and sometimes Danuta) can tell you. The warm and honest hospitality you can experience at her house has become rare in the days of anonymous five star hotels around the world. Coming back from Manhattan, Danuta's place was perfect to relax from the crowd and noise of the city. In case of questions, Danuta was very helpful to get us "Tourists" a perfect start on Staten Island and Manhattan. As the other reviews already stated, breakfast is fantastic and Danuta is very sensible related to her guests preferences. The two rooms we used were both very comfortable, good beds, large (for New York City measures huge ;-) ) bathrooms. All the small details are taken care of. Of course, the whole house is very clean (what amount of work!). If you arrive by plane, make sure you print out a map from yahoo or other to check that the taxi driver makes the right directions... GPS systems have not made their breakthrough into NYC cabs yet. For the next visit to New York, we are looking forward to stay again at Danuta's place.
