Being born and raised In nyc this is a great location. Whether car or no car this is a great local spot to get to all the sights, great food and tons of it all within walking distance. Would never recommend renting a car in nyc because you can walk to anything and citi bikes are a great way to get around faster. The room is exactly how it appears in the pictures. However, I had no toilet paper when I got there. Since there is no front desk I had to hope I ran into a housekeeper. Which I didn’t and had to go buy some. The next day I saw a housekeeper and got some. On my last day of checkout I ran to the store for a last minute item before my flight. I returned to the building and my room door at 11:45am. The building card worked. My door card did not. Luckily I was catching a ride from a friend and not Uber because the card stopped working 15min early and locked my luggage in the room. The instructions upon check in states all card will stop working at 12pm. Huge inconvenience because now I have a ride waiting for me and no way to get into my room. When I called the host phone went straight to voicemail. Luckily a housekeeper came by and was kind enough to let me inside. I had messaged the host immediately and was only asked what room number I was in, no apologies for being locked out or the lack of toilet paper. I always rent Airbnb and this was a first getting a hotel through here and the communication sucked compared to my previous experiences. Check in instructions were provided 24hrs prior to arrival instead of 48hrs not sure if this varies by host.
