Fred is a great host who took care of us very well. The flat was clean and more spacious than expected. In general, the substance of the flat itself is not the best (e.g. the floor and ceiling is uneven) and as the kitchen is a go-through room it does not have any window itself. Nevertheless, we felt very comfortable because everything was very clean, the mattresses of both beds in both rooms are great, the kitchen is well equipped and the subway is very close (4 Av-9 St is around 6 min by foot) and well connected to manhattan!
