Location, location, location.
This room puts you in a great location to set out on your New York adventure.
With room for two, fridge, microwave and sink in the room it was sustainable for multiple days. I almost never ran into anyone in the shared space.
When I left the room I felt that my bags were safe. I also slept soundly.
If you have a heavy workload, plan on doing it at one of the nearby coffee shops.
Would stay again based on the location and host.
