K Alexandra was a big help when I needed to find a last minute place due to a sudden death in my family. It was affordable and the location was perfect. We had a slight hiccup with check-in and getting the place ready and cleaned for my arrival. But that was because I had made the reservation less than 24hrs earlier. It’s a 5-flight walk-up so do as did and buy groceries and whatever you need ahead of time to spare yourself the hike which really wasn’t bad for me. And really, that’s typical of most old NYC buildings. The best thing about my stay was the 24hr Walgreens across the street, and the mattress on the Queen-sized bed. I had the absolute best two nights of sleep. In short, a good host for a good place at an excellent value.
