We had a very warm and pleasant stay at Emmanuel's place. His apartment is exactly as shown in the photos: clean, very neat, and comfortable. We really appreciated having the full kitchen (looks new!) and the super comfortable king size bed. Checking in and out was smooth and Emmanuel was always communicative and available. The location is perfect-- easy access to the busy areas/restaurants in Astoria, close to the subway, and about 15 minutes to Manhattan. We would absolutely stay again.
