Gil was a very welcoming host and was waiting for me when I arrived. The room was definitely large and spacious for Manhattan standards. I stayed 2 nights during a cold weekend but the room was still very warm. I recommend this place for anyone looking for a short term stay. It worked out well for me I was only staying there for a couple nights and then checking into a company paid hotel later. Gil was kind enough to call a car service to drive me to the hotel.
