Mark was very hospitable, communicative, and even patient when I got a little confused about check-in time. The room was clean, with historic attributes that made me feel at home. For a private room, it was a good size, perfect for what I needed. I appreciate that I was greeted with a welcome note, inclusive of helpful tips, rules, etc. as well as two bottles of water for the hot days in NY. I loved the neighborhood!!! It was located right down the street from so many great eateries. While out for dinner and a beer one night, I met some really nice people. I would definitely stay at Mark's place again.
