Great location for exploring the city and incredibly accommodating host. However, if you're planning to stay long-term, note that you will be staying at an incredibly loud intersection, even by New York standards, and that there is little natural light in your room. In addition, the host may be working out of the common area during work hours, making it more difficult to have the space feel open. All in all, a good stay with just a few inconveniences keeping it from being 5-stars.
