We stayed with Nikolas for about 3 weeks while we searched for apartments. We LOVED our stay here! It was very peaceful and easy to get a great night's sleep. The location is epic. We walked all over Astoria during our stay. THERE ARE SO MANY AMAZING RESTAURANTS TO TRY! It's super close to the train/bus station too! Nikolas works a lot, but whenever he was home, he was very kind and welcoming. He also had some great recommendations for the area since he's lived there for many years. Highly recommend staying here! It's a great place to get grounded as you learn the ropes of the city!
