I had a perfect stay at Shuly's place. The house itself is gorgeous, spacious and clean, and the room had everything I needed plus more. The bed was comfortable, and the room provided all the coziness and comfort of a home away from home. Bathrooms were very clean and extremely well kept, and there never was a wait. Other guests in the house were very respectful and aware of a shared home, so it was always quiet. House is situated in a quiet residential area of Astoria, and close to public transit, amazing restaurants, groceries, laundromats and night life. I never lacked anything in the neighborhood and commuting to downtown Manhattan for work was a breeze each day. I feel lucky to have stayed in such a wonderful room in a gorgeous neighborhood, and I'm certain I'd look into availability at Shuly's place first whenever I am traveling to NY. What a gem. Highly, highly recommended!!
