No frills stay in NY, close to everything I’d want to do. Exactly what I wanted. Was able to walk to the subway easily and hop on for anything that wasn’t close enough to walk. I heard lots of snoring at night so very thankful for the earplugs they provide!
The bathroom is a bit dirty but that comes with communal bathrooms, so definitely bring shower shoes.
Also, check out Walter’s Bar across the street for a neighborhood feeling dive, started and ended my weekend there. Great, friendly bartenders and clientele.
