I really enjoyed my time at Jackie’s. He’s really accessible and a great host.
I’ve been wanting to work from home from NYC. So this review is for a week-long stay.
As for the apartment itself. The room was amazing. Spacious, clean, aesthetically pleasing, large bed, and plenty of cabinet space. The particular room I stayed had a desk and chair. I was able to work comfortably and without any issues. Wifi worked perfectly fine.
Location: accessible to the F line (which practically takes you anywhere—subject to a few transfers). You’re in NYC—walk. Walking distance to the bars in LES. Walking distance to Manhattan and Brooklyn bridge. Walking distance to East River Park. Major points for being close to Target and Trader Joe’s.
Check-in process: very thorough and easy to follow. No issues whatsoever.
The one thing I’d flag is that this is a 3-bedroom, 1 shared bathroom apartment. Though I never had any issues, I was under the impression this was a two-bedroom apt. Also, no microwave.
With all of that, I’d recommend Jackie’s place for a short and somewhat long term stay.
