The space is clean, warm and quiet (so much so that when I stepped out the door onto the street I was taken aback by city noise each time! There isn't really an exterior window, so it was hard to tell what time of day it was. The room is a great deal if what you are looking for is a good safe place to sleep and an easy host (Nicole was great at returning messages quickly, and made check in simple and straight forward). Good location very near Central Park and the subway. If you are looking for a charming apartment to hang out in, you will probably want to look at other listings--this one is best if you are planning to be out and about while visiting the city.
