If you expect everything to be just right this is not the place for you. Some things might not work, some of the furniture is pretty tired, but that's not the point here. It's HUGE and quirky. You could pay more for a hotel room the size of the bathroom in Manhattan. You can sit on the balcony in the eve with views over Manhattan. It is brilliant for a game of hide and seek. The street feels safe, but the area beyond may be a bit sketchy. It's a short drive to the ferry terminal making for a lovely journey in and out of the city. There are also nice things to do nearby.
