We really enjoyed our stay here. The apartment was exactly as we expected and it also had everything we needed (plenty of towels, pillows, blankets, blow dryer, iron etc.) the neighborhood was great with plenty of food around that is open late. The apartment is on a quiet street. There can be some people and dogs heard walking down the sidewalk in the first room but that is expected. It is very easily accessible to public transportation (10 min walk to the train and buses nearby as well). Kim was a very responsive host and even let us check out late which was so helpful for our last day. I would recommend this place to anyone looking to stay in Astoria!
