We stayed here for 3 nights and really appreciated the location -- close to several major express subway lines and near a Whole Foods and close enough to the park and Upper West/East Side. The room is on the ground floor and faces the street -- this wasn't clear to us and the noise overnight was pretty bad. Definitely need earplugs. Lots of shouting and people hanging out right outside from 1-3am. We had some problems at check in (other guests had erroneously checked into our room) and the room wasn't ready until much later than we expected. We felt safe walking here at night but a single woman new to NYC might not. Room itself is as pictured. Bed wasn't super comfortable and seemed small for 2 people. Bathroom is shared with other airbnb guests and could use a deep cleaning. There is an AC in the room but a fan would also be nice. We only chatted with Wayne briefly but he seems like a very nice guy!
