Excellent Host and on providing information. If you are tight on budget and need to make sure you leave your budget to get to see the city, then this is a good option. It is an space just to go to sleep, Subway is around 10 minutes walking. Walking at night around the neighborhood was a little sketchy, wouldn't recommend for someone alone.
There is a close by supermarket which is great for healthy food and snacks.
Keep in mind New York space is tighter and most buildings are a little old.
