Great experience in Sylvia's House. Very close to M/R station. Astoria is a very kind neighborhood, multicultural and american at the same time. I recommend to have breakfast at D-Lite diner, that's near te 46th Street Subway station.
The house is perfect to reach every zone in New York, we went easily in all of five District of NY, Queens (Of course) Manhattan, Brooklyn, Bronx and Staten Island. If you want a perfect accomodation, Sylvia's house is perfect.
