Alex‘ place is located in East Village and very close to a lot of things. You have the Tompkins park, restaurants, cafés, bars and small supermarkets. It‘s a ten minute walk to the 1Av subway station. We always felt safe in the neighborhood. During the night is was not noisy as you would expect from the city. So you can sleep very well there.
The room is a little bit smaller than expected but it’s fine if you‘ll be just there for sleeping. It could be a little bit cleaner. The rooftop is very special. You can have a pretty nice view on the Manhattan skyline. We didn’t see Alex during our stay but that wasn’t a problem for us. When we had a question, he answered quickly. So if you are searching for an affordable room in NYC, we could highly recommend it.
Thanks Alex‘ for hosting us!
