Roy's place is on the lower east side and we (3 of us) enjoyed the space tremendously. The apartment is not huge but the rooms and the common area is perfect for some friends or family members that want to get together in the city. Parking is not so great on the streets for numerous reasons and one of them being restaurants extending their services onto the streets. The location is around a store, liquor store, 99 cents stores, and a Lots Less store. So, if you forget something you can run across the street to find it. The place does have cooking utensils, linens, towels, and towels. Lastly, Roy is responsive if anything happens during your stay he will get someone in to help you fix it or give you a tutorial on how it can be fixed.
