Great location for exploring NY. The area is lively with lots of things to do, which is good, because you don't really want to spend any more time than bare minimum in the flat.
It's dark, in serious need of at least basic renovation/paint job/wall plaster /blinds fixing/ floor polish-repaint (which one would assume is possible for the price you pay per night). A similar priced room in a hotel would be in much better upkeep.
It was not very clean when we checked in, with hair all over the floor and bathroom, half drank bottle of prosecco standing on the table.
Check in is nice and easy with great description of the process from host..
