Nice room for a trip to New York. The room is spacious, good closet and windows. The bathroom is tiny and the shower is down the hall, but It’s great to have an en-suite toilet and sink for for mornings and when you arrive after a long day on the town. The location is very close to the subway and you have two options, the A or the 1. An express train gets you to Columbus Circle in 30 or 40min. It’s a large older apt building and you can come and go as you please. Bertha is friendly and accommodating, a great host. She provides towels and soap and the bed is comfortable. I would definitely stay again. The neighborhood is very Latino, and has lots of cheap food around. I enjoyed the cheese empanadas at Monumental for a quick bite on the go and the nearby parks are great for a stroll along the water.
