For starters, the location. First, you can get to Times Square in 25 minutes, more or less. Second, Astoria is a nice, quiet area, not too touristy, with lots of amenities nearby.
The room is very nice, clean, spacious and really true to the photos. The bed is comfy, with a good mattress. You'll have lots of drawers and closets to store your things and luggage.
Finally, but definitely not least, the hosts, Andrea and Sebastian, are very friendly and affable, engaging and always ready to help with any query or issue.
We would definitely come back and we recommend this place, as it is a great accommodation in New York. The price is totally worth it.
