We had a great time at Stella's place. Having stayed in Manhattan, we wanted to try somewhere completely different.. and it is! You get another view of New York from this part of Queens. It is very multi-culti, there's a vibe to the area which adds to the charm. The flat is a way from Manhattan, we needed nearly an hour, but the subway is only round the corner, as are a myriad of shops and restaurants and buses. We paid 30 dollars for a taxi from JFK, but on the way back we got the 03 bus just round the corner from Stella's and it cost us 2,75!! The flat is only small but big enough, and we could use the kitchen, too! Thanks for everything, Stella!
