You definitely get what you pay for with this room.

If you don't know New York well, I suggest doing your research before booking this location. It is a 20 minute walk to the L subway train, and an hour (at least) to get into Manhattan.

The room is advertised as being able to sleep 4, but I don't see how 4 people could fit in this room. The mattress on the bed is wrapped in plastic which doesn't make for a comfortable sleeping situation. My friend and I believed we would each get our own place to sleep, figuring one of us would sleep on the futon that is pictured. However, it was broken and very uncomfortable (and is actually leather which doesn't quite come across in the pictures), and we ended up having to share the bed. Additionally, coming and going from the apartment was a bit of a hassle. The locks on the outside door are very tricky, and there is a very particular smell in the stairway that gets stronger as you get closer to the unit door. It was a bit unpleasant.

Nora and Larry were very accommodating and cleaned the bathroom and took out the trash every day, which was nice.
