Luis was very nice, but for $100/night (actually $91/night plus service fees), the quality was amazingly bad. I have gotten much nicer places in similar locations for the same price, both AirBnB and hotels.
The room was tiny and undecorated, the paint chipping and unevenly applied, parts of the walls were warped and slightly gouged or taped, the door was taped (not sure why), bare lightbulb in the ceiling, the mattress was so rock-hard I actually thought it was just a box spring at first, and the bed frame creaked / clunked when I rolled over; it was ok, it didn't break, but I was a little concerned. The view from the bedroom is the back-end of other buildings, though it's fine if you like the New York grit look. There was an ok amount of daylight reflected off the other buildings into the bedroom; the common area (just a kitchen and hallway) are windowless and small and also undecorated.
The bathroom was so tiny I actually had to turn sideways to be able to fit between the shower and the wall to pass it and get to the toilet; odd that the shower wasn't at the end, since it's the widest thing in there. The faucet dripped.
The sound of loud jackhammering outside went almost constantly from 8:am past noon (even though this was a Saturday). Also, it seemed every time I entered / left the building, one or more people were smoking on the front stoop.
To be fair, the wifi worked fine. And during the day there were indeed flower and plant sellers out on the street, which was kinda cool. But overall, I found the place pretty soul-crushing, especially for the cost.
