To begin, let me say that our host has already told us that he will reply to our evaluation. Let me also say but B&Bs may not be for everyone but it truly would not be fair if I were to not write an evaluation. Late spring early summer may not be the right time to visit New York City with this B&B. There is no air conditioning in the apartment and so it got the bit sweltering. In addition, the arrangement of the apartment could be a bit difficult for the modest visitor as the only restroom is faced by the host bedroom and is on the other side of the apartment from the guest bedroom. Also, there are no towel racks or anything like that in the bathroom for hanging towels. Lastly, though I believe the neighborhood is described as eclectic, there wasn't a lot to prepare us for the noise and fighting in the streets that we experienced during our time there. Again, this lodging may be more appropriate for the Bohemian and not the typical traveler.
