The location of Joel's place made the stay in New York so much easier. Very easy access to all the places in Manhattan and Brooklyn by subway and can walk to anywhere in Manhattan!
The space was semi-private with curtains and folding screen panels, which is quite common in New York. The bedroom space & living room all felt comfortable and cozy, though I wished the bathroom had a door.
Joel was very friendly and helpful.
Overall I had a pleasant experience.
