Javier was a great host! Very responsive and proactive in communicating. For this price in New York, you know it won’t be anything fancy. It was a little odd that this is his personal bedroom. The mattress was thin and a little hard. The window in the room was also broken and the door doesn’t stay closed. The bathroom had some visible hair and the toilet didn’t flush properly which we had read about on another review. The location has some great restaurants nearby and is about 1 mile from Times Square. If you’re looking for an affordable place to crash and don’t mind some quirks, this is great.
