Jose's place is immaculate - a big plus for me. For some, the bedroom might seem small but I thought it was perfect for a solo traveller. It has a large closet and a nightstand with a USB tower. Perfect! Jose has also thought of all the little things that make one's stay comfortable: an extra small towel rack for guests next to shower, a stand to recharge the phone on the dining table, a wonderful Nespresso coffee maker, a superb flat screen to watch Netflix, and more.
The area is great, too, close to restaurants, shopping, Gramercy park. ( I recommend the little Thai restaurant next door, on 1st Ave, called Bangkok 2.)
Overall, a very good stay with a top notch host.
