Joel was so nice and welcoming, and the neighbors are equally friendly! The place is the perfect size for a couple, but the sheer amount of space on the balcony makes it ideal for anyone who may entertain guests. The bed was extremely comfortable, the bathroom was brand new and clean, and the TV is huge. Only issue is no access to a kitchen, which meant that we had to eat out most of the time (this didn't really end up being a problem because there are a bunch of affordable and nice delis and restaurants a few blocks up the street). Fantastic place fora fantastic price - I hope it's available the next time we visit NYC!
