I would definitely recommend this place for a short term trip. The location is super close to the subway line 1, the bed is really comfortable and smells great, the closet is spacious, and the private bathroom is really good. I stayed 3 weeks at Baden's place and would not recommend it for people who are not on vacation. I went to NY to do research and interviews, so I had sometimes to study in the room or to wake up early in random days. One Sunday, the hosts came back home at 3:30 am and turned on the music. It was rather inconsiderate and I had to knock on their door to ask them to stop. They stopped for a while and turned the music on again around 4:30 am. I had to wake up at 6 am that day for an early interview...It is also worth mentioning that the Washer/Dryer is not drying clothes well (it takes 5 hours and the clothes remain damped after it) and the private bathroom is located at the other side of the apartment. They frequently have guests over, so the house is almost always noisy. Again, these small problems might bother a long term guest, but I don't think they would be an issue for a short term tourist.
