Nadine’s place in Astoria is fantastic. The apartment is spacious - more than enough space for my family of five, which includes three teenagers. The description in the listing is 100% accurate.
The location in Astoria is a short walk between two subway stations to get you to any other part of NYC, and there are many, many local places to dine and have a drink nearby. The neighborhood was safe. My wife and I did not have any issues walking around in the evenings with our children.
If you are looking for a great place to stay in NYC, but without the cramped and over-priced places in Manhattan, then this is the perfect place for you.
