I enjoyed my week-long stay at Pon's place! Amazing location near multiple subways to take you anywhere in the city, yet very quiet as it faces the interior of the block. It has nearly all the essentials- the host didn't provide a hand towel/washcloth or paper towels, so I bought my own paper towels at the Whole Foods a block away (useful if you're doing any cooking). You also need your own shampoo and soap. The shared toilet is in the hallway, but there are actually 3 separate toilet rooms so I never had to wait to use one. Also no ironing board, but I was able to do some light ironing using the futon. Pon communicated the check-in instructions clearly and even let me check in 2 hours early, which was very helpful. All in all a great place to stay if you don't need much and mainly want a convenient location from which to explore the city!
