Yasu & Akiko's place in is such a convenient location. It is right by times square and there are so many places to eat and get drinks nearby! The room is nice and comes with a personal bathroom, towels, sheets, shampoo, conditioner, soap etc. There is also a futon which is nice if you have 3 people who don't want to share beds. If you have big bags, know that there are no elevators, so you will have to carry them up the stairs. The community kitchen only really has a stove. There are pots and stuff to cook with but if you want to reheat food, theres no microwave and there is no oven. Yasu and Akiko are great hosts and respond to messages quickly. It is a pretty good spot for the price and location.
