Deycke is the most amazing host. She's sweet, thoughtful, and really works to make you comfortable. It is wonderful to stay with her. Very easy and a great location. To stay there (and most places in NY) if you're not in an expensive hotel, you have to understand New York City, the places, and the people, whatever outside noise might happen, the fact that most of the buildings are 100 years are more old. If you are open-minded and generally a nice person, you will love staying with Deycke.
