For an individual or a couple, this place is definitely worth considering. Do keep in mind that it is a very tight space but very much manageable. Coming from Florida where rooms are expansive sine there are no buildings buddied up next to it, you do have to understand that in NYC, hotels & AirBnb's are generally smaller due to the layout of the city. Overall, we felt safe in this room. It is on the first floor as soon as you walk-in which allows you to hear literally everything in the lobby, but that was no issue to us. Overall, would stay here again if you're looking to be within walking distance to SOHO, China-Town.
