We had a wonderful stay at Roula's place in Astoria. It was so warm and comfortable -such a pleasure to come 'home' to each chilly night. Roula was very responsive when we had questions about how anything worked, and she even invited my daughter to stay with us, which I didn't expect! The neighborhood seems safe - we were out walking late at night - and is within walking distance to the train station, which was very important to us. I will definitely be staying here again, when I am in NYC!
