THE BED IS A FULL-SIZE. I want to say that up front because while Liz does describe the place as having a full-size bed, the listing says elsewhere that the accommodations are a king-sized bed, a sofa, and a single bed. The only other place to sleep is the chaissez lounge that is in the room. Liz was very communicative, warm, and friendly, one of the friendliest AirBNB hosts I have ever met. She made delicious coffee for us and offered us bagels in the morning. But my husband and I just couldn't sleep :-( The bed was too small for us, and the window unit A/C was not working, so we slept with the windows open and with a small fan positioned next to the bed to keep us cool. Lack of central air is par for the course in NYC apartments, but this listing mentions A/C as an amenity. This might not be a problem in cooler months but we were there on a warm spring weekend and the room was a stuffy. There aren't curtains so to speak on the windows, and since the windows are open there is a lot of light -- though surprisingly not much street noise -- in the morning. The room itself I believe is a converted living room (again, not out of the ordinary for centrally located apartments where space is a premium) but there is no full door, only a curtain extending about 85% up to the ceiling. Thankfully, this was not an issue at night and in the mornings, as all of the apartment's full-time residents (Liz, her child, and several birds) were very very quiet in the mornings. So in summary Liz was a lovely host, but I wish the posting had been a bit more accurate about the space and its amenities/limitations. They're not dealbreakers depending on the time of the year you visit and who you are traveling with, and for the central location and warm host, it will still be a great bargain for many travelers.
