A welcoming host (and family), a comfy room (separate entrance and half bathroom much appreciated!) and with Central Park about 20 mins on the subway, Alicia's is a great place to stay in New York. You'll be right on the edge of the Hudson, with great views from the 9th floor, and even a riverside park across the road. A colourful and lively neighbourhood, with everything you're likely to need for your stay easily available. Definitely recommended.
