Ron‘s place is a great place to stay for the value, if you are a single traveler or a younger couple. If you have issues walking upstairs or need a very soft bed then Ron’s Place might not quite be the place for you. Location is fantastic as it is close to the a C/E subway Plus it’s decent walking distance to central park as well as Midtown.
It’s also walking distance to the intrepid museum and boat tours around the area. Plenty of good local restaurants and pubs are nearby as well as late night Quickstop markets and delis.
Minor issue with the air-conditioning unit that just requires a couple flips of a switch. The bathroom is nice and modern especially the shower. The room is a decent size for an older New York City apartment, and it should suit your needs as long as you travel lightly.
Overall, if given the opportunity, I would definitely stay at Ron‘s place again.
