I am a local and I stayed at Jays place while work was being done on my apartment.
The location is awesome , you are literally a two minute or less walk from anything you could possibly need or want - it's a bustling neighborhood and the best location in Astoria.
The building is older but the apartment has updated finishes and is very nice, reasonably clean, very comfortable and very sunny.

The best thing about this place was the value. I had an entire apartment to myself for less than most rooms in the area. And Jay is very helpful and will get back to you immediately via text, he knows all the best shops and restaurants - when there are so many options nearby it's nice to have some guidance

The apartment is a walk-up so if you can't do 3 flights of stairs this is probably not the place for you.
