Steven's place was absolutely as described in the photos. The layout and furniture is as per the photos; a perfect size studio with lots of storage and a kitchen that allowed us to make plenty of home cooked meals. The bathroom was a good size and again with plenty of storage. The washing machine & dryer also worked. The air conditioner worked well and the block-out blinds were good. We have left Steven some suggestions to replace the towels as they are getting old and also the mattress as it sags a bit in the middle. Also, if you are a light sleeper, we wouldn't recommend this place as it is located on a main route into a tunnel; therefore, the traffic noise was absolutely constant (24 hours). We stayed for just under 6 weeks as the price was very reasonable - value for money in NYC. It was located within easy walking distance of shops, restaurants, supermarket and subway stations (5 mins). Good coffee shop around the corner too. Steven was very welcoming when we arrived (late by 2 hours due to flight delays) and communicated well with us throughout our stay. Overall, Steven is an excellent host and the proximity of Midtown-East makes this a very attractive location if you are happy to tolerate some noise.
