The hosts are very friendly. My flight arrived very late, landed at 3am, but Maria was awake to let me in without being grumpy. Location is in a good area of Manhattan although it's a 10-15 minute walk to the subway. The room and bathroom are clean, bed was comfortable. No real negative. They do have a baby which in theory could be unpleasant for a guest, but they make sure he isn't disruptive and my stay was fine.
