The good: Great price and location. You're located about two blocks from Penn station so you can walk there and be in NYC in no time. There are sketchy people outside of the train station but there is also a police presence so you always feel safe. Walgreens is directly across the street which we used multiple times to buy last minute item. There are multiple bars and restaurants within walking distance.
The bad: You get what you pay for. The place sleeps six and has one bathroom. This wouldn't be such a huge problem but the water pressure is so weak that it takes forever for people to take a shower. To add to this problem, the water comes out scorching hot. I had to turn it on and off multiple times so that I wouldn't get burnt. The furniture was falling apart but I brought it up to the host and he fixed the issues that we found. The cable and wifi wasn't working but the host fixed it the next day as well. Expect the bare minimum as far as mattress, sheets, and pillows. The bed that I slept on had squeaky springs, and the thinnest pillows I've ever used. Last thing is that we were a party of four but only received one set of keys which was a major pain in case we ever wanted to separate. The place has a lot of potential just needs a few upgrades in furnishings and definitely needs that shower fixed.
