The room is great if you're the only guest otherwise what is advertised as a private room with private entrance becomes the exact opposite of private. The idea is great. They built two additional rooms with a bathroom in the back of the house with a separate entrance from the house. However, this room has two doors that separate you from the other room and the bathroom. The door that you see in the main picture next to the bed leads into the other guest's room. These doors can be opened if you're the only guest, creating an en-suite bathroom. Otherwise they are the only thing that separate you from the other guests both when they're in their room or when they're using the bathroom. I heard every time the other guest farted, burped, or went #1 or #2 . . .and I also heard him rinsing his hands afterwards only once and for a solid 3-4 seconds. I am glad I was there alone or I would not have felt comfortable talking aloud and be clearly heard by the person on the other side of that thin door. Hotels have double doors that separate adjoining rooms and they are solid and much more insulating than the hallow core composite doors they used, which are more appropriate for closets than to create privacy between rooms. Lastly, considering the location, I think it's a bit pricey for what you get. I rent out my whole 1-bdrm apt in the center of Astoria, with shops and restaurants open 24/7 all around you and rent it out for the same $125/night I paid for this room.
