It is a hostel, not an Airbnb. There are many rooms, houses on 3 levels, accommodating more than 30 people I think. So long wait for the bathroom / WC. Very impersonal house. Rooms not very nice. Bunk beds. = Hostel
Communication with Anthony remains good, although one feels the automatic and impersonal answers. No welcome on arrival. We stayed 3 days / 2 nights, I never met Anthony. He probably did not live in that house. So no information for breakfast, use of the bathroom, people living here, guests, etc ... = business
The distance with the metros is close. So you are in Battery Park / Wall Street / Ground Zero in about 20 minutes, and Times Square in about 45 minutes.
The area is quiet. There is no free parking in the house but the street in front offers free and easy places all weekend.
