I have been to NYC many times but I have never stayed out of Manhattan until now. Astoria was a fantastic place with everything you could need (food, coffee, shops etc) and easy subway to and from Manhattan and other areas! I had no issues! I would happily stay there again!
Atlanta was a wonderful host and very helpful with any questions I had from well before I even arrived to get home!! I was there about ten days and Atlanta was always available to help even if she wasn’t there! Friendly, fun and a great host highly recommended!
