Yiota's studio is in an excellent location, there are many great bars and restaurants nearby. We really enjoyed our stay in Astoria; it is a great spot to stay outside of Manhattan but still close enough if you want to travel there daily. Conveniently the train is very close by, unfortunately it seems to run right under the building so it is noisy and disruptive, especially Mon to Fri. The description of the studio is accurate, it has good amenities, the air con and wifi service were very good.
