Nico was a really nice host. He even helped me with my bag on the walkup when I arrived. The room is clean and basic. What's nice is that the shared bathroom door is right opposite the door to the room so its the next best thing to having your own attached bathroom. The location is great, just a few blocks from the subway station and in the heart of Hell's Kitchen. The small niche on the other side of the bed was really useful as I was able to stash away my big bags in that corner. All in all, a good experience!
