This is a small, street-facing basement studio on East 38th St. The location is very convenient for any midtown purpose, and just a few blocks from Grand Central station. The room is comfortable enough, although very compact. It doesn't get much outside light, since in order to have privacy, most people will prefer to keep the blinds down. The family living in the adjacent apartment were, fortunately, away for most of my stay, but the noise when they were home was considerable. Marjan's assistant Bianca was very gracious and easy to interact with, making check-in and check-out pleasant and smooth and flexible. Overall, I'd say this is a clean, no-frills convenient (although quite expensive) option for someone wanting to be in this part of Manhattan.
