This place is in the heart of Astoria with walking distance to subway and all the places you would need. There is a 24h open pharmacy market just across the street. The room itself is large and gets good enough sunlight during day time. Sheena was such great host, she responded quickly to any issues, even she was away for work. Stickers she wrote were helpful to follow, especially for kitchens. You might get random noise from the street, but most of the time it is quite as apartment is on higher ground. I recommend staying here!
