Robert is a fun and involved host! He was generous and spontaneous in sharing things throughout my three night stay- helping me with my bag, sharing coupons for places I was going, etc. He is happy to hang out /go out on the town / watch tv / discuss current events with his guests. His roommate (who also lives upstairs) was very friendly too in the two times I saw him!
Robert has set up the room and bathroom to have all the essentials. The room has a good deal of floor space, a little desk, a bureau, two courtyard windows and an AC unit. The bed is super soft. Right outside the bedroom door is the living room space with the TV. If they have friends over, this is where they hang out, so be sure to chat with Robert in advance if you're on a super early schedule or something. The living room is open onto the kitchen and past that is the bathroom which Robert stocks with towels, shampoo, etc.
As a heads up for when you arrive, the apartment buzzer wires sometimes get crossed and you will buzz the wrong apartment, so make sure you have enough charge on your phone when you arrive to contact Robert in case this happens!
All in all, I felt very at home here. If you're looking to meet a cool host in a great spot on the upper west side, I would recommend Robert's place!
