Crispy was a great host! Although my boyfriend and I didn't get to meet him in person, he was great with speedy communication and accommodating us with our budget! There are a lot of steps to get upstairs to the room, so keep that in mind if you are traveling with a lot of items or luggage. This place was close to a lot of local eateries that we tried and loved! The room, however, was cold and so when we were home, our sinuses got congested and we had to layer up. Also, my boyfriend and I explored other burroughs of NY but became frustrated because the bus that would normally pick us up from the subway station close to the house, stopped running early in the evening. Other than that, I'd definitely recommend staying here if you plan on visiting New York.
