Monika was just awesome! She was barely noticeable at home but she was always there in case you needed here. I bothered her with many questions, worked with my computer not only in my room but in the kitchen too and she was totally cool with that.

The room is exactly as described. The AC works like a charm so don't hesitate to book in summer. The mattress of the sofa bed was better than I expected, and I put it back into the sofa position during the day to get more room.

And the neighborhood is great! You can get lunch or dinner for much less than Manhattan and you can get there in just a few minutes (the subway station is only a couple of blocks away). There are many good places to get food and groceries in the avenues nearby. My personal recommendation: get a beer at Astoria Bier and Cheese, 35-11 Ditmars.
