The place is a good budget place in otherwise costly New York City. If you are a group of friends or youngsters looking for a cheap place for a couple of nights, then it could be an option. I wouldn't recommend staying with your family here.
The neighborhood is not the best place in new york and the building itself looks old and not well maintained. Have seen people smoking within the building a couple of times.
The apartment is located on the 5th floor and there are no elevators.
There will be other guests staying as well, and everyone including the hosts uses the same bathroom. Totally, there can be up to 8 people staying in the same house.
The bedroom was not big enough for 4 people, with two king beds there's hardly any space to move around. Closets and cupboards are filled with the host's clothes and garments, hardly giving us any space to unpack ourselves.
One of the beds has an air-mattress, so it wasn't comfortable to sleep on. By 5th day I started feeling I will get back problems.
Other than that, Jimmy is an excellent and very accommodating host. He allowed us to keep our luggage temporarily even though we had checked out of the place.
Finally, I would recommend against making conversations with the host's dad.
