I needed a quiet place to relax for a month of apartment-hunting in NY and this was just a great place to stay. Getting in touch with Nancy was easy and the place was amazing. There is a fully-equipped kitchen and bathroom, TV, Internet, the bed was comfortable, and on nights when it was a little hot, the AC kept the temperature just right. Nancy has really thought of everything, down to a neighborhood guide to help you discover all the best places to go in Astoria. The Ditmars-Astoria stop is close to restaurants, grocery stores, pharmacies, and the N and Q trains get you to Manhattan in no time. Astoria has a real neighborhood feel and it's a beautiful area to walk around in, even at night. I would definitely recommend the Garden Suite to anyone who wants a quiet place to come home to, while still being close to Manhattan and Brooklyn.
