TJ's apartment was great! It was perfectly situated just around the corner from so many lower east side bars and restaurants. The subway is just a couple hundred metres down the road.
We had two great sized bedrooms, and there's extra space in the living room with a fold out sofa. The apt was always nice and warm when we got back in the evening (in december). He has fast wifi which proved to be very useful, and he provided towels in the bathroom which had a good shower. Overall, would recommend to friends and even go back myself. Only my two other friends met TJ because I was delayed on the first day, but I'm told he was very helpful and welcoming when they arrived
