This place is great for a short term stay. It's unique and secure for any single person visiting new York. There is a nearby grocery store and subway, too.
My only issue was that I stayed for a longer period and wished the apartment had more practical features. As a woman, I found the lighting and mirrors to be unhelpful when getting ready for work in the morning. One mirror is completely decoration, and the other two are placed so high on the walls with thick frames so I could only see from my neck up! Funny but inconvenient in the end.
Also, there wasn't much room for storing food in the cabinets, so I had to place things on the counter.
Overall, the presence of a washer/dryer and a nice coffee machine made the experience nice. I think this airbnb is better suited for a short term stay as it is convenient and the owner is quick to communicate with you.
