Very nice neighborhood. Good access to transportation. Everything you need nearby: food, pharmacies, even an urgent care facility. The room is clean, beds comfortable, nice shower, plenty of fresh towels and linens. Plenty of closet space. Microwave and coffee pot with coffee and accoutrements supplied. The host is unobtrusive but available if needed. If you can live without TV and can handle a few steep steps down, this place is a real bargain as a home base for exploring NYC! We would choose it again.
