Conclusion: This place is AMAZING! Totally worth the price!
Reasons:
1. The host: Maria is an amazing host who is welcoming and warm. She provides a lot of information about NYC and had been very considerable and kind to me. I am deeply appreciative for her hospitality.
2. The Room: Very clean! The bed sheet is very clean and new. The whole room is in great condition and clean . The decorations are neat and refreshing. The bed is new and comfortable. You basically have your own bathroom because the host uses the host bathroom . The bathroom is very clean . With your own basin .
3. Transportation. It takes 40 mins total to reach the city center. 10 mins walking to the train station of train 7 and then you are all set: 30 mins to the very center of the Manhattan. Which is very convenient for NY life. For the price you pay this is actually shorter than the average time to commute. I have done research on this.
