Giselle is such a wonderful host. Check in was a breeze and Giselle always responded promptly to my messages. The room was small, as expected for NYC, but it was spotlessly clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. My only complaint would be the radiator, which clanged loudly for a few minutes every hour. I quickly got used to it, so it didn’t affect my stay too much, but it was a small nuisance. I felt very safe in the area, although it is a bit of a trip to get anywhere without several subway transfers/busses. For the price though, it can’t be beat, and I would recommend this place to any single traveler looking for a comfortable respite in the city!
