We booked this place as a group of 5 for a weekend on a trip to New York. The place is conveniently close to the metro station (Journal square) that goes into Manhattan. The place itself looks like it was just remodeled, very modern looking, good lighting, very clean. Everything there was perfect for us. The host was always very responsive and nice. I highly recommend this place for anyone who wants to visit New York but doesn't wanna pay crazy Manhattan prices.
