This is an ideal place for a mid to long stay (at least a month), young and energetic travellers to New York. I stayed at 4th floor without elevator, essentially good for cardio, apart from daily on foot travelling to pretty nearby subways and metrobus which my health app easily showed 10,000 steps per day. I'm not complaining :)
The staff were very helpful and friendly. I like Musa and Mostafa. Both of them were very kind hearted and willing to give hands whenever needed with smiles. Others were also helpful, just that it would be better with more smiley impressions in future. However, please provide extra tips if you like them better.
The location is very near to the local amenities. The stores sometimes open up to 10pm. In the mid of busy city never expect to be always in quite surroundings, as everyone knows NYC is sleepless city. BTW, the area is easily accessible to the next visiting city like DC etc.
There's front desk counter if we need any help or temporary to place our luggages.
For me host deserves 5 stars!
