This is a fantastic base from which to explore Manhattan: a safe central neighborhood near lots of transportation. The room was comfy and had everything I needed. Laura was great at communicating, including helping me by text when I got lost, and giving me directions for the subway.
To ensure that expectations match reality for future guests: Note that like most Manhattan dwellings, it's small, so not a good choice for hours of lounging around. People with mobility issues or heavy luggage, note that you need to be able to walk up 5 floors.
