The room is quite small but comfortable for any tourist who wants to visit New York. Indeed, the N line, which crosses Manhattan from North to South basically from Central Park to Brooklyn Bridge, is just 2 minutes walk away. I didn't try the kitchen, so I don't know about that. The neighborhood looks safe, I took a walk at nine in the evening without any problem. Only two problems, which took my stars down to 4 instead of 5. First, for the first two evenings we've had cold water of the shower. We told Cagkan only on the third day, because in the second morning the water of the sink was smoking hot, so we assumed that the issue was fixed also for the shower, which wasn't as we discovered in the evening. Anyways, after telling Cagkan, he took care of it immediately. Another problem is that in the little room there's also a water pipe coming from above, which means you would hear water pouring down from it whenever other residents take a shower. And when it happens at 5 in the morning, well, it's not nice... No blame to Cagkan for that, he was much available for everything. I'm just saying about a matter of fact of the room.
