Ociel's place is perfect for a quick stopover in the city. It's very tidy and easy to navigate. It has a common fridge and my room had a microwave. There was only one shared bathroom but it's very doable. Basically a mini-hostel sans kitchen! And very affordable in an infamously expensive city. The only water available was the bathroom sink tap, but New York has great water so I didn't mind filling my water bottle there.
A small detail I appreciated was the umbrellas!! I borrowed one for the day it rained, and it was so nice not to have to buy one since the rest of my trip had nice weather.
Ociel himself was very kind and attentive whenever I had even a small issue. He was great at being responsive in the airbnb app. I arrived very late (almost midnight!) and Ociel came and let me in when the door code wasn't working. Thank you so much!!!!!
