We had a very enjoyable experience at Jonathan’s place. His description of the place was spot on, the room is very spacious with a lot of light, an AC unit and Netflix, a closet and a large dresser to store our things, so it was perfect. There is an office type space off to the side of the room that has a large mirror in it as well, which is great for getting ready since the bathroom is shared. The location is close to the ferry (less than 10 min walk), which we used to travel to Manhattan or Brooklyn daily. There is also a local cafe around the corner, Astoria Provisions, that had great service and food, in which we dined twice and got coffee from daily. Super awesome to have such a great place around the corner. The neighborhood is extremely quiet at night and we felt safe walking around the area, and to and from. Jonathan’s place is super clean and we were told to make ourselves at home, with full use of the kitchen, if needed. There is also a private entrance to the room that is optional to use and we used it when we returned really late at night so we didn’t have to come in through the main entrance to the house. There is also a door in the hallway that you can close for extra privacy. I thought that was really nice too. Overall, I really enjoyed our stay in Astoria and would stay at Jonathan’s again in a heartbeat. It was nice to return to a quiet, safe, super private and clean space at night to unwind after all the run around. There is also a binder provided with local recommendations, which is very thoughtful, as we weren’t familiar with the area. We went to the Bohemian Beer Hall & Garden (suggested) and had a great time. We’ve never been to an outdoor beer garden in NY- it was so nice to see such a different side to what one would think is just a crazy, busy, city if you’ve only ever been to Manhattan. Highly recommend!
