We enjoyed our stay at Karen's - the studio is clean and cozy, with all the amenities one needs during a trip to NYC. Note that the super convenient, close by, above ground subway can be heard from the room. The full size bed (not queen as noted in the summary) is on the firm side but quite comfortable. I appreciated that I could keep my luggage at Karen's after check out so I could enjoy my stay to the very last minute. Karen is an attentive, accomodating and friendly host. I would definitely stay again.
