We were looking for an affordable place to stay in Manhattan and Lou’s place was a great choice. The location in Midtown made it quick and easy to get around by subway or even walking to many locations.
The host was very accommodating and helpful. He was quick to respond to all inquiries. The self check in and check out was convenient and easy.
The place is in an older building with lots of character, funky decor, and beautiful high ceilings. One negative thing was that you can’t control the temperature - the radiators turn on or off automatically according to the weather outside. We ended up being quite cold one day and hot another day (even with all the windows open to try to cool the place down - and that resulted in the noise from the street making it hard to sleep). Also, the shower temperature fluctuates so be careful.
Overall, it was a good place to stay in the city.
