I experienced issues with the room and with the host - the room was unclean, and also felt unsafe because of a connecting door right next to the bed that had strangers staying on the other side. There was a crack in the door and the hinges on the lock were partially unattached. The locks had been duct taped and painted over. I was hoping to figure things out with the help of the host, but he was slow to reply, didn't come over to help after work as promised, and then got really mad and unpleasant when I finally (after waiting for many hours) filing a refund claim. All in all a frustrating experience. Sketchy place. The location next to a park is nice, but the room was dusty and had garbage in it, the bathroom smelled, it was in a cellar and like described over, the host was unpleasant. If location near JFK and park is all that matters to you it's an okay place for a night or two - I hope you have a better experience than I did.
