The appartment was excactly as described and it was very clean.
Good large room with two doublebeds and extra sofa and a very nice and functional bathroom. It was very near to Time Square and all the attractions. There is a little kitchen at the 2. floor.
The only drawback was a rather noisy discoteque or bar nearby which was opened until late.
We never actually met the hosts, but we didn't miss anything and didn't try to contact them, so this was fine.
We would certainly recommend this accomodation to others and would chose it again if we should return to New York some day.
