Joe was a great host, responded very quickly to my messages and was kind. The location is great, lot of places to visit and eat in East Village and really close to the subway with great connections. I can't give it 5 stars cause on Friday night it was really hard to sleep because of the noise. The music was very loud outside and it didn't stop until 5 AM. But it is still a good place if you just want to crash for a reasonable price in NYC.
