John’s studio is the perfect place for a stay in Manhattan in term of location and price. We stayed only 3 nights but feel like home! The flat is cute, clean and very convenient: each space is optimized, you can cook, store your luggage under the bed and have spaces to walk, hang some clothing and have a bath chatting with your friend ! Girls, John has even think about your hair : he provides hair dryer and even hair straightener! John was also available when we needed, provided a nice presentation of his studio at our arrival and kept our luggage after the check-out.
Nearby there is nice coffee shops and restaurants like Coyi café on avenue B and Crif dogs (try the secret bar)

The only inconvenient I can see (and it didn’t bother us) is : you should be close to the person you stay with, the bathtub is in the main room (but curtains are installed).
