The place is exactly as described and shown in the picture. Everything is brand new and updated - I guess I was one of the first guests who stayed here. Roy is a perfect host - he immediately picked up the phone when I had a question concerning the door lock and came to meet me to ask if everything was according to my convenience.

The WiFi works perfectly and the showers are hot - there may have been smaller issues in the first days after the renovation but they are all fixed. The house is very quiet located in a residential area but Portuguese and Spanish restaurants with great ratings (check out yelp and tripadvisor) are just around the corner.

Street parking is available - I found a spot almost always nearby.

In a nutshell: the room is a perfect choice in the class of affordable rooms near NYC and I can only recommend it for people who travel on small budget but want to stay in a clean, quiet and newly renovated place.
