Edgar was very welcoming when I got to his place. He gave me great directions for getting around. There's a train nearby (maybe ~15 minute walk), as well as several bus routes. It's easy to get places from Edgar's place, but the place itself is in a nice residential area.
The room was very comfortable, especially the bed. Although I didn't really use the kitchen that much, it's nice to know that it's there for use.
If I came back to NYC, I'd definitely stay at Edgar's place again!
