The room was exactly as shown in the pictures. It was very clean, well maintained with an air-cooler that worked perfectly and I was pleasantly surprised to see that the room was much bigger than what I expected. It was a great relief to have an elevator in the building. If you are looking to get the feel and vibe of the Upper East Side, Belinda's place is a perfect spot.
The windows in the room were perfect to get a view of the skyline in the night.
There were other tenants in the apartment but I barely had any interaction with anyone except for polite greetings in the hallway. It's super private otherwise.
The walls are thin and the floorboards are wooden and I was able to hear people walking to the washroom or within their rooms.
The washroom was just adequate for my requirements, a clean towel was provided, had all the necessary toiletries well stocked and I never had to wait in the two nights I stayed there. The check in and checkout was super smooth and Belisa was very quick to respond to any questions that I had. She was warm and a wonderful host and she has beautifully designed the room. I will definitely stay here again when I visit NYC.
