I stayed here for 15 nights whilst in NYC on business. Marylyn & Lloyd were fantastic hosts (Lloyd even offered to take me to the local British bar for a drink or two).

The room was clean and well presented. It has all the amenities required (cooker, microwave, fridge freezer etc). There is a flatscreen TV and everything you see in the pics. The bathrooms were always kept spotless also. The only con that I had was my room was on the top floor, and the wifi router was on the 2nd floor and there wasn't enough range to reach my room. Luckily I had a mifi dongle from work so this wasn't an issue.

Bed-Stuy is an interesting place to stay. It is a cultural melting pot with lot of people around at all hours of the day or night. I felt completely safe in the area any time day or night. The subway is really close by and there are plenty of shops and takeouts nearby too.

Midtown Manhattan is around 30 mins if you get the express subway train which was perfect for me.

All in all I had a great stay and I hope that Marylyn and Lloyd will welcome me back whenever I'm in town as Herkimer St makes a great base for me while I'm there.
