This place did not work for us. I booked for my adult son who was traveling to New York for work. We booked a private room. Prior to arrival, we were told there was a leak in his room and he would be move to a new room. When he arrived, he was told there was no rooms available and he was to sleep on the couch or bean bag (which I guess are also available for rent) in the living room just off the kitchen. No private room, just a couch by the kitchen. I tried reaching out to the host without response. I booked another hotel, and tried reaching out for a refund with no response. I then contacted AirBnB to begin the refund process and then was immediately contacted by the host. My wife spoke with him and he would not offer a refund and stated there was a communication error. We continued working with AirBnB until our refund was issued. We knew this had a slight chance of being a sketchy rental but with a private room we took a chance. The price is good, and if you're ok with more a a communal living arrangement that may or may not be clean, then this might work for you on a budget. Just be sure you know what you're getting into and the possibility you will be placed in a bean bag for sleeping upon arrival. Good Luck.
