Mirlet was a great host! While starting a new job in NYC, I needed a place to stay while getting my footing in the office. The apartment was great and Mirlet was always able to be reached if there were any issues. Comfortable, well decorated 1st floor studio apartment within a half block of the train station. Fully equipped kitchen, renovated bathroom, and good size bedroom with sliding door to the back patio area. Door to door, in Manhattan within 15 minutes by train, 10 by car (traffic dependent). Couldn’t recommend this place more if you’re looking for a cozy place to stay just outside of Manhattan in beautiful Astoria!
