Further details for this holiday apartment rental in Queens, USA

About the neighborhood: Astoria is a neighborhood often on the tongues of New Yorkers who love to eat and drink. People from across the globe have made Astoria famous for its varied cuisines. From many street corners, you can see the foods of five continents represented by nearby restaurants. It's more casual and cheaper than Manhattan, the foods are more traditional and less nouveau, and there's a great neighborhood vibe. Astoria is also the home of New York City’s oldest beer garden, the Bohemian Hall. The garden is large and full of trees and picnic tables filled with folks sipping cold beer and tackling plates of hearty Czech food.

Review Submitted: October 19, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
we had a great time at the apartment, the location was great outside of manhattan but easy to get to the subway or a car to go to the city. We really enjoyed astoria, and the shopping on steinway street. we would most definately stay again. The owners are great.

A Superb Alternative to a Hotel...

MissLydia San Jose, CA
Review Submitted: October 29, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
My mom and I found this apartment while seeking places to stay for a wedding we were attending. The bride helped us locate this little gem of a place and after our experience here, we'll never stay at a crummy ol' hotel again!

This Astoria apartment is more than we could have hoped. We were thrilled to see how charming and spacious the place was when we walked in the door. It was absolutely spotless and had everything we could have asked for - maps, menus, books on NYC, lots of fluffy towels... even a blender! It was amazing. Jean makes sure that the place is comfortable, safe & secure and she was available for any questions we had.

The neighborhood was a wonderful place to walk around and a fun place to explore. LOTS of good food, kind people and only a short walk to the subway. One of the things we loved the most was that our station was at the end of the line, so there was always plenty of seating on the N train when we got on. :)

Again, we can't say enough good things about our experience and would HIGHLY recommend it for your next trip to New York.

Great place for a longer stay in New York CIty

Jenny and Clive Leeds, Yorkshire, UK
Review Submitted: September 14, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We (middle-aged couple from Yorkshire, UK) had a great week staying in this apartment in Astoria, Queens at the end of August/beginning of September. From here we explored Manhattan and spent 3 days at the US Open tennis at Flushing Meadow, Queens. The location was good for both since the subway is cheap, fast and frequent and we even used it to return from a late-running night session at the Open at 1am. The subway station is only 10-15 minutes walk from the apartment. The apartment itself is great - very tastefully decorated and with good facilities for cooking and relaxing - and the owner is very friendly and has provided lots of useful information. What really surprised us was how good a choice it turned out to be to stay in Astoria. We really liked the neighbourhood - much more relaxing than Manhattan - and we made good use of the large number of good places to eat on Ditmars Boulevard. A walk to Astoria Park is recommended too for good views of Manhattan. We'd thoroughly recommend this as a place to stay, especially if you are in New York for more than 2-3 days.

GREAT APARTMENT

SBelle Surrey, BC
Review Submitted: August 29, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2008
The apartment was clean and well equipped for an enjoyable stay for the four of us. Privacy and access to the facilities were easily available. Jean was very helpful and knowledgeable about NYC and it was obvious that she was proud of her city. She had decorated the apartment with artwork and stocked it with great books (both fact and fiction) and videos. It was great to leave the buzz of NYC behind and in less than a half an hour be in Astoria, a pleasant neighborhood for dining, shopping and just chilling. We enjoyed the beer gardens as well as the outdoor Greek restaurants.

August Holidays in New York

Firenze's Traveler Italy
Review Submitted: August 25, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
I spent with my wife and 2 children 5 days in New York and we have had really great time in Jean's apartement . The apartment is nice , perfect for 4 people with 1 bedroom and 1 pull sofa in the living room and a complete furnished kitchen . Ceiling fans and AC's are making confortable your staying even in the hot NYC summer time . You have also 2 Tv's and DVD system to keep the children busy whern you're at home .We found the apartment clean , a welcom basket waiting for us and some stuff as coffe, water , cereals etc to get confort without getting out when we arrived . The area is safe even in the night with shops , restaurants, and markets really closed ( between 100 and 200 meters ) .Metro ( N Line) to go to Manhattan is 10 minutes walking and in 15 minutes you're in the core of the big apple . Jean is always available for questions , hels ( as to book a car for the airport ) , suggestion about NYC. I definetely recommend this property .
