This place is a gem. It is quiet (for NY), one block away to Steinway St., a few blocks away to the subway (I recommend walking down 30th) and in a very vibrant and culturally diverse neighborhood.
Caterina is super friendly and accommodating. Her place has an interesting layout that she’s worked out beautifully. There’s a hall, a living room (your room) and a bathroom and kitchen at the end.
Certainly recommend it if you’re set to explore Astoria as a neighborhood.
