My friend and I were spending 3 days in NYC and we wanted to stay somewhere affordable so we picked this place. We were out and about all day, and we only were home to sleep and shower, but the place was good for that! The bathroom is surprisingly shiny and new. The mirror is well-lit, which is nice. There was supposed to be a communal blow dryer in there but I think one of the guests probably took it to their room and it was unfortunately not recovered during our stay there. The air conditioning is powerful, which we were grateful for, because we were in New York during an intense heat wave. There's not a whole lot of stuff in the immediate vicinity but it's close to the J line and there were a few convenience stores nearby. We also had to extend our stay very last minute and Oscar was quick to reply to messages and flexible in arranging that for us, which we appreciated. Overall, good value.
