As others have mentioned, Fernando is a great host. He was very attentive and responded quickly to all of our questions. Check-in was a breeze, and he made sure to give us all the info we needed.
His place is really great. As others have mentioned, the front room, with the two beds, is on the noisy side, while the back room is quiet. I slept in that front room (my parents got the back, quieter room, and they loved it) and used earplugs as I'm a bit sensitive to noise.
The thing is, it is noisy because you're in an awesome location!. The neighborhood is full of great restaurants, a very nice theater just across the street, etc. A bit of noise is a very small price to pay (if you're sensitive to noise like me, whatever a pair of earplugs cost in the pharmacy).
Another bit mentioned in other reviews is the lack of common space. True enough, but we (including our not-so-young parents) had no problem hanging out in the kitchen (4 chairs and a small table) or in the front room. And again, there's a lot going on outside so why would you want to spend so much time inside the apt anyway...
The place was very clean, with a good wifi network (if you care about such things).
I would definitely look to book this place for my next visit to NYC.
