We loved staying in Michael's place. Convenient location (only a couple blocks from the Subway) in a cool neighborhood. I always felt safe walking between the subway and the apartment. The apartment is very small, but had everything we needed. He even stocked the fridge with some snacks, water bottles, and frozen waffles which was amazing! Came in very handy for breakfast, and it was great not to have to buy water bottles from the expensive street vendors! The bed is hanging from the ceiling and accessible via ladder, which was fine for us, but I could see how it could be a problem for some people if they were afraid of heights or something. Michael was great to work with, he was awesome to coordinate our check in/check out times with. He also took the time to explain the area and subway stations to us when we checked in. If we ever come back to New York and his place is available we will definitely stay there again!
