Rhita was such a kind host. She took care of all our needs and made us tea and shared her delicious Moroccan food with us! And yes, the bed is as soft and comfortable as the previous reviews claim. Rhita even donated an umbrella to us and saved us from the rain on our last day! The location is perfect. Astoria is such a multicultural neighbourhood and you will find all types of restaurants there. It’s a short walk to the subway. Overall amazing value for her rate and just the perfect place to stay for your trip to NY. Thank you Rhita.
