The place is close to Penn Station and all important things in New York, which is amazing. Apart from that, it's small and old. It doesn't seem like the host is even trying to make this a nice place to live. The couch is smaller than advertised and extremely uncomfortable. It's just a metal frame with fabric. No matress. No two people can sleep together, you have to sleep on on top one at bottom. We didn't even have space enough to have two open suitcases on the floor. I would only recommend this if you do not care for comfort at all. Then it's a good place due to its location.
