Pros - Fairly good value for NYC if you are traveling there with more than four people. For the price of one night here, you would probably pay twice the amount at a hotel for four. Location is a block and a half to two blocks from the subway but a fairly long subway train ride to tourist destinations. I was able to drop my luggage off an hour before check-in as we had to return our rental car and didn't want to find an Uber car that could fit five of us and our luggage. I was able to enter the front door using the code and the upstairs door was unlocked as the cleaning lady still had her bucket in the doorway.
Cons - When we returned at 3:00, we couldn't get into the upstairs door with my code - had to call. Bill said he forgot to change it and gave me the code to use and that he would change it to the correct code. However, when we went out and came back later, the code was still the original one. The next day we went out, came back and couldn't get in again - had to wait about 15 minutes in the hot stairwell before we received a call back. There was water in front of the freezer that we had to clean up - someone left ice in their freezer and it must've melted. There's only one AC unit in one of the bedrooms and another in the living room - two fans are provided but one was not put together correctly. We pulled it apart, cleaned the dust off (both fans) as the blades were covered with dust. Only one hairdryer (which we had to clean because the lint was making it hot) for two bathrooms. There was a dirty towel hung in each of the bathrooms. Only half of a roll of toilet paper in each bathroom. Bring your own soap as you won't find any here. The toilet seat in the back bathroom is missing a screw - so it slides when you sit down. Batteries for the remote for was not working so we couldn't watch tv - thought we found extra batteries in the kitchen drawer but they were the wrong size. The corkscrew in the kitchen was broken. We didn't need to use the bedroom with the bunk beds but this room is not a bedroom - it doesn't have a window and seems to be a large closet that had a bunkbed shoved in there - the cord to the lamp is just run across the floor to an extension cord. The couch has a low back so it isn't comfortable.
