"If you're looking at this listing and thinking, "What am I missing? This price is so much more reasonable than anything else in the city. Are these reviews fake?" We had the same questions. Took the gamble. You should too.First, let's explain the negative. It's going to be offset, this review is still 5 stars for a reason so bear with me. The room is worn in, and is wanting for some repairs. The walls, the cabinetry, the furniture and the fixtures could use some TLC. There was an odor coming from the plumbing in the bathroom the duration of our stay. We switched our phones over to the cell network because the wifi was spotty.But the positives. The place is clean; 100% pest free with no signs of cover-up cleaning. It's quiet. Stunningly quiet. The linens are pristine, the AC unit works great. It feels VERY safe, and the very responsive host (Marlyn) has a live-in caretaker on the main level to address pressing needs who is lovely. There's an entire functional kitchen with clean appliances and enough dishware to get done what you need. The bed is very comfortable and doesn't make a SINGLE squeak getting into or out of it. And the location is utterly unbeatable. The subway entrance a couple blocks away is an express line stop to get you anywhere on Manhattan crazy easily.I'd stay again. Save your money for experiencing the city. I'm so grateful this place was available."
