This listing was perfect for my 1 week stay in NY. I needed a kitchen so I could cook during my stay, and a refrigerator to store my food. Xavier's place was great for cooking. I had my privacy, and the room was very clean as was the bathroom. As was mentioned in other reviews, the room is street level, so be prepared with some headphones or earplugs as the room can be very noisy, but this is outside of the host's control. With headphones it was not a problem at all. Other than that the listing was reasonably priced, clean, and a great stay overall, would recommend.
