Ahmed is a nice and friendly host. He stayed in touch with us since the booking day and closer to the stay dates, helped us with the directions.
The place is very close to the UN HQ and within walking distance of Times Square.
The room is small (as expected) and away from the common room/bathroom/kitchen and at times can get inconvenient accessing the common areas.
We had a good time staying at Ahmed's place but the same could have been better had it not been an old building/apartment and closer access to common areas.
