Had a good time at Bryan's place! Would come back for a short stay for sure!
I stayed there for 2 months, the room is just as advertised, his transparency about it is very appreciated by the way: it's very small (queen size bed, small desk, space for suitcases, and no windows so it can get a little hot sometimes), but you have all you need to live and the apartment is big anyway. Best advantage is definitely the price though, I think it's hard to find a better deal in NYC no kidding.
Bronx is what you can expect from Bronx, populated, noisy and a little wacky but I never felt unsafe (have to say i am a 25 yrs hispanic looking men though). Everything you need (Grocery, bank, gyms) is a minute away.
Finally, Bryan is nice, responsive, keep the apartment organised and respects privacy. Current roommates are very nice as well.
You get what you get in terms of room size for the price but again, best deal ever!
Thank Bryan!
