This studio (which my husband and I lovingly referred to as “the dorm room”) makes for the perfect sublet. As the other reviews say, the location makes for the ultimate NYC experience that we will talk about for decades. We are Manhattanites (Upper East Side) who needed a temporary place, and I was a little nervous that the area would be too lively since we needed to get up and go to work every morning, but it was perfect thanks to our white noise machine. We didn’t need them, but if you’re sensitive to light, get an eye mask. The size of the place is tiny but fine for 2 people. Be comfortable with using a ladder for the loft bed. The kitchenette setup is also fine because you really shouldn’t be cooking when you live in this amazing area! The overall quality of the place is fine. Mario is an excellent host, available, open to making accommodations when you need them, and makes you feel at ease about the sublet arrangement given that can be a problem in some buildings. For the money, the balance between the location/quality of the apt/helpfulness of the host makes this the absolute perfect sublet!
