The patio is exceptional. It is large, has a full wooden deck, table, umbrella, gas bbq, wood firepit and related accessories. The rooms are well appointed and clean. The lounge-kitchen is functional as the bathroom.
The neighborhood is a bit rough, although the house is next to a police station so there is an added sense of security.
The only thing that may be difficult to some was the noise the heating system makes, especially in one of the rooms.
The hosts are very responsive and friendly. They made sure everything worked and everything that was needed functionally was there. I'd recommend this place if you appreciate a great outdoor space in Manhattan without paying a fortune, at least some of the guests don't mind a bit of noise from the heating system and you value responsive and friendly hosts.
