Melissa’s apartment was exactly how it looked in photos. Clean, trendy, stylish. It was the perfect amount of space we needed for our short stay. Location wasn’t exactly the best in Astoria, and I’m mostly rating our experience 4 stars solely because of location and the amount of noise. When I say you can hear everything... you can literally hear everything. The apartment is in the front of the building and overlooks a bridge and highways. Constant cars honking, ambulances, street noise. Additionally, you can hear every little move from the neighbors next door. Also, the thermostat appears to be broken. In the bedroom especially we couldn’t get the air conditioning to work, and were sweating a lot throughout the night. The floors in the living room / kitchen area were heated though, and that was a really nice touch. Also side note: there’s no Apple TV or any way to connect a computer to their smart TV, just in case any future guest was looking for that option. They do have a lot of other options though like Hulu, Netflix, etc.
