Daisy's place is located in a great neighborhood, a few blocks from the train and thus the rest of this great city. Sleeping is basic, on an extended couch that's comfortable and worked fine for me, tucked into an enclosed, private area in the narrow living room of this typical one-bedroom NYC apartment. Don't expect luxury--this is a small, comfortable, convenient setup and base camp for a short or longer visit. Kitchen and bathroom are clean and provide everything you need. Coffee is available each morning, and the kitchen has full capacity for meals or for prepping stuff to carry out during your wanderings. A big-screen TV next to the guest area is equipped with a full range of cable offerings.
Daisy was great about check-in and provided great hospitality and conversation. She's available much of the time (and always quickly via phone or text when she's out) but is very respectful of guest privacy; when she's there she'll offer whatever level of contact you prefer. She knows the city well and can provide the info you need to make the most of your visit.
The private, enclosed patio area outside the apartment is unique in the city and a great place to sit and write, ponder, rest, etc. Lots of birds and a squirrel or two show up each day, some of them Daisy's buddies; she feeds them regularly, providing a welcome touch of nature amid canyons of concrete for anyone who enjoys a wild, gentle presence outside the windows.
I had a great time during my week-long visit, and Daisy's hospitality was a big part of it. I wouldn't hesitate to stay at her place again on my next visit.
