We arrived late at night as expected and Emilia was there to welcome us and show us around the apartment. It is a tiny studio, ideal for two people although we were three and fit just right. The double bed and the air matress were comfortable. The building and apartment could do with some repairs and more cleanliness, for example, the lift always smelled of urine. The inmediate area and residents are not what one would call picturesque but we never had a problem even though we walked the streets late at night. It's quite near to the subway, we never waited more than 5 minutes for the Q line and on a normal basis it's a 30 minute ride to Times Square. We had a problem with the building keylock a couple of nights but luckily we could get in. Emilia couldn't meet us for the check out but we didn't mind.
