Doug has a charming place in the East Village with tons of light but importantly for late-risers, the windows in the guest room can be fully boarded to keep the room dark during sleep. The bed is very comfortable and the room is spacious for one person - a fan of Western classical music will be delighted by its contents. The shared kitchen and bathroom are clean but keep in mind that although Doug (who's a great host by the way) pays the bills, the true master of this space is Gibson the cat. He's very sweet though and mostly stayed on his perch sleeping/watching me. Wonderful stay!
