It was very easy to communicate with Marco during the booking period, I got answers right away and he was very accommodating of some special requests like late check-out. He was there to welcome us, helped with the bags and very friendly and helpful at all times (even his family who live 10 meters away in a separate flat). He made sure all things that might be needed in the room were available. We stayed for eight nights so he changed all sheets and towels and cleaned in the middle of the week, at date and time that was convenient for us.

The room is perfect for two persons, with own toilet and shower, sink, we did not even use the TV and VCR but nice to have in case needed, wifi, small ref and microwave, hot and cold water. There is aircon, which is very much needed during summer. It is in a basement so easier to bring large luggage, which was also reason why I chose it since I would not have energy to go up and down with bags.

The neighbourhood is safe. We did not feel afraid at all even if we were walking from subway or theatre at midnight. Lots of delis, restaurants (esp in 8th and 9th Avenues), 24 hour pharmacies and just walking distance from Times Square. The daily price of this bnb is very good for such a central location.

Will I stay here again when I go back to NYC? Yes, definitely! No second thoughts.
