The room was as advertised, small, but we were only sleeping there so it suited our needs. The hosts were very patient and accommodating when we had communication difficulties due to my phone not being able to send out texts.
There is noise from restaurants and patrons down below late into the night, but we expected this since it's NYC.
The location is very close to the metro. There's a Starbucks next door and a great Vietnamese place around the corner.
