This was a great apartment and suited all of our family needs. It was clean, comfortable, well equipped, close to markets, drugstore, and a 5min walk to the Subway station! Astoria is a lovely neighborhood, full of great restaurants and without the chaos of Manhattan, but still a very close subway ride to it (4 stops and you are on 5th Ave and Central Park in less than 20min).
Thank you Ashlene for being a great host, you were super responsive and accommodating to our needs. My family will always cherish this beautiful memory of their first time in New York City.
