This is a hard review to write, because Raanan is a super nice guy, one of the best hosts I've dealt with, and the bedroom and bathroom are unusually roomy for this area. However, the apartment itself was pretty uncomfortable-- it's a typical old NYC apartment where you can't turn the heat off and it becomes sweltering, even if it's 55 degrees outside, but it's also just so noisy outside with construction in the street at all hours that you can't open the windows at night. The water pressure was kind of iffy and the windows are so grimy they don't let in any light at all. We had a problem with the original bed, which was quite cheap with popping and sagging springs and so bouncy we kept each other up all night, and Raanan had a new very comfortable memory foam one for us right away, bringing it over himself. This is probably the one thing he could control, and he made it right, but for the winter, unless it's very cold out, we found this a hard place to stay in long term. If you don't mind the heat and the street noise and just want to crash, it might not be a problem for you. It's harder to use for a long term stay if you intend to cook.
