Choosing to stay at this gem in Astoria was one of the best decisions I could have made!
Location: The location of this spot was perhaps the best part. Just a few blocks away from Steinway/30th/Broadway, there was NEVER a shortage of restaurants or grocery stores to stop by or go for a walk. The subway station was also only a brief walk down the block, and connects to Manhattan in a pretty quick ride. Definitely the best spot for someone who wants to enjoy both Manhattan and Queens stress-free. Laundromat was 1 block up the street (Bubli) and they were super sweet, relatively cheap, and pretty quick.
Property: The place was well-stocked with amenities, full kitchen, bathroom, etc.. Which was a big help with only being in town for a relatively short time. The space was pretty comfortable for 1-2 ppl (we were a couple and found it well-sized). But there is also a recliner for another guest if possibly required. There was a large smart TV with Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, etc. which came in handy. There were no issues with pests, cameras, or anything else concerning, so all clear there. Occasional footsteps heard upstairs, but that's to be expected with a basement apartment.
Host: Charlie was super accommodating and responsive to any messages I sent over, and was always willing to lend a helping hand. Check-in and check-out process was super easy and all instructions were conveniently provided in a binder that I could reference at any time.
Overall: Great spot, great host! No complaints whatsoever. You won't regret it. 🙂
