Positive Reviews
positive:
Very good central location
The vast majority of guests were very happy with the
location of the apartment. They especially liked that it was close to the 30th
Street Subway Station, from where Manhattan
and the rest of New York was
easily accessible. Many also mentioned that the Astoria
neighbourhood was very attractive and had great restaurants and amenities.
positive:
Proactive property agent
Guests were generally very impressed with the agent they dealt with during their stay, Martha, saying that she was efficient, gave good information and made herself available should her guests have any queries or issues to raise.
positive:
Good Wi-Fi and cable TV
On the whole, guests were quite satisfied with the speed and reliability of the Wi-Fi and also mentioned that the TV was hooked up to a reasonably comprehensive cable package.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Apartment was a bit small
The general feeling among guests was that the apartment was very small, even by New York standards. Even guests in groups of only three felt that it got very crowded with that number of people staying, let alone groups with the maximum allowed guests (five).
negative:
Some problems with insects
There were perhaps a bit too many complaints about insects of various kinds in the apartment, ranging from ants to cockroaches. The general feeling seemed to be that if more attention was paid to cleaning the problem could be greatly reduced or even eliminated.
negative:
Could get a bit noisy
Several guests complained that other guests and/or residents in the apartment block were very noisy, sometimes late at night. Since this is not an apart-hotel, but rather a single apartment in a regular building, guests did not really know how best deal with this problem.
