I think this is the best place to stay in NY. Cheap, very close to the metro and a very nice host.
Young gave us precise instructions to get in so check in is super easy. He was very flexible (we could leave our bags for a couple hours after check out).
The kitchen is very big and convenient.
I would recommend to bring ear plugs, since the room is at the street side and there is a lot of buzz at night.
Overall really wonderful!
