Dennis and Alexi are such warm and welcoming hosts. They accepted my booking request on same day notice, after I found out the friends I was staying with were going out of town and subletting their apartment while they were gone- so I could no longer be there. I love Astoria and feel like if I ever moved back to NYC, that's where I'd live. There's such a diversity of great food options in the area, especially if you're into seafood, a short walk to the subway gets you to midtown in 20 minutes and downtown in 45, and it's close to JFK if that's where you coming or leaving from . Even with such short notice, my room was clean with fresh towels on the bed. I'm a night owl as well, so it was nice that when I came back earlier than expected one night, we stayed up, talked and ate ice cream. Their dog, Troy, is also very sweet. I would stay with them again in a heartbeat!
