Chao's place is a nice place to stay, stayed here for 7 days.
The apartment is clean, his two cats love attention so they will want to chill with you in your room.
Room- the room is spacious, well lit, well ventilated and comfortable.
The bathroom is also very nice- we had an issue with the water temperature at one point. I informed Chao and he acted on it immediate. He even offered us his bathroom. Thankfully the issue was resolved.
Interaction- We didn't see much of Chao due to his work hours but when we did he was polite and welcoming.
Access- to gain access is simple- the lock system is a bit tricky so be sure to double check you have locked the door. The building it self is safe.
Neighborhood- Safe during the day and night, vibrant and convenient stores are a step away from the apartment.
Location- good location, easy access to the bus or subways.
Overall a good place to lay your head down and explore New York.
