Top tips...
Excellent place to get out of the Manhatten madness at the end of a day.
Use the rooftop at sunset. Wow!Take a drink and food up there and enjoy the amazing views of Manhatten.
Use the ferry from Astoria, a 5 to 10 minute walk. Takes you to various locations in Manhatten, Brooklyn, Long Island. Much more relaxing than the metro and just $2.75 per trip. Great for seeing the skylines day or night. Safe to walk to and from the apartment.
The metro is easy to use and at the top of the street, 10 to 15min walk. Regular service into the heart of Manhattan. We got a 7 day unlimited pass for around $30 which included the buses (not ferry though). Saves messing around each journey and well worth it even for 4 days use.
Well worth the stay and would recomend to anyone
