I only gave this place a few stars for a few reasons. Sharon was awesome at communicating with us and let us store our bags there while the cleaner cleaned. We arrived before the cleaner was there and put our bags in the room. When we returned later that day we noticed that the beds duvet had not been changed. Luckily the clean one was in the closet so we changed it ourselves. There was also no soap in the soap dispenser in the bathroom. There was no microwave as advertised and the only thing besides the fridge were a kettle and tea pot. There was no tea and coffee as advertised. There were also no cups or spoons. So if we were to bring our own tea/coffee, we would have not had any thing to drink it in. Also the hot and cold in the shower is on backwards so for 2 days we had cold showers thinking it was the upstairs tenants using all the hot water. Again Sharon replied to our texts promptly to let us know the hot/cold was backwards and we were very thankful to be able to store our luggage. The location and the subway stops are true to Sharon’s description. There are places to eat/drink near by and city bikes are right out her front door! I would recommend this accommodation if all you are looking for is a place to sleep and a good central location for easy and affordable access to exploring Manhattan and Brooklyn.
