Our stay was comfortable at Ethan's studio. We had a rough start with the minimal heat that's controlled by the building, but there is a space heater in the room that works fine. If you're coming to NY for a night or two this is a great option. Any longer than that, I wouldn't recommend only because the apartment isn't equipped for a long stay. There is no full length mirror, working outlet in the bathroom, microwave, or full fridge. However there is a mini fridge and an outlet in the kitchen so it's fine for a couple days! Ethan responds very quickly so if there is an issue (for us it was the heater and the shower head) he will resolve it quickly. The area around the apartment is cool, it's pretty hipster. There are alot of speakeasies within a couple blocks and some great coffee shops!
