Carlos was a very friendly and nice host, and he responded to messages quickly. The bedroom was decently large by NYC standards, and the bed was comfortable. Comfortable temperature in December, wood floors are not cold. The neighborhood is a little noisy, but that's expected for Washington Heights. The windows insulated the sound well enough to not bother me. I don't believe the building has an elevator, so you'll need to be able to climb a few flights of stairs, not bad. Be aware that the 1 train is not stopping at the 168th street station due to construction supposedly scheduled to be completed Jan 2020 (A/C trains do stop there).
