Edward is a great host and a really cool guy to talk with. The apartment is in a great neighborhood, close to public transportation, easy to get a cab, lots of food and bars/pubs. In fact when I got there, the bar next door had put ads in front of his apt for a first free microbrew... Sold! Great way to get things started. The room is not bad, very functional, has a tv if you want to watch it. Bathroom is small, but hello, this is NY, all living spaces are small. Edward's roommate Dennis was also a really cool guy to talk to. Overall, a great experience and I'd strongly recommend to any of my friends who are visiting the city.
