Susie's place is recommendable if you're looking for a no-frills kind of place. The six flights of stairs made it a little difficult to go home after a whole day of walking around New York, but it's all about managing your expectations.
Room: the room is very simple but it has the basics that you need. A somewhat decent WiFi connection, outlets, lights, a comfortable bed, and towels. The place was acceptably clean but be warned, the shower in the bathroom has inconsistent heating and it might be difficult to use for tall people since the shower head only goes up about 5'4 or 1.62m.
Location: the place is conveniently located with some subway stations only 5-7 mins away by foot. There is a 6-storey climb that you have to make at least once a day and I definitely would recommend packing light if you book this place.
The listing is as honest as it gets and if you know what to expect, then the place delivers 100%. Susie is a great host who is ready to help out however she can.
