120 - 350 - Na Quinta Avenida, a 3 quadras do Empire State Bldg!

Here is a translation (via Go*gle) of my guest's review:

"Functional and well located apartment. Pricey for what it offers.

Apartment well located and functional. Very old building without lift. Nothing easy in shifting suitcases. Kitchen well.equipped, comfortable Queen bed.

Negative point is that there was no extra bed linen left for exchange, considering a 10 day stay."

I thank the guests for their thoughtful review.

I am sorry they feel the property was pricey. It is priced well below what a hotel in the area would charge during the same time of year, which is a high-demand month. A hotel room would have been less than half the size and without a kitchen. But I would urge any prospective guest to comparison shop.

I am sorry too that the guests had no extra bed linens. The maid had prepared the apartment in anticipation of their arrival on a Sunday, when the commercial laundry that cleans the sheets was closed, which meant she was not able to pick up the extra set.

Their problem should not recur: I have bought another set of linens to ensure that does not happen again.

Meanwhile, my guests had my contact information and that of my cleaner; had they told either of us that they needed a fresh set of sheets, they would have gotten one.

The fact that there is no elevator should not have been a surprise -- the apartment is described fully and accurately in the ad, which states that it is a walk-up. Prospective guests should weigh whether they are comfortable walking up four flights of stairs with luggage before booking.

The building was constructed in 1925. Some guests consider pre-war studio apartments to be a plus -- they tend to have high ceilings, to be solidly built and maintained, and to be more spacious than many more modern apartments. Those positives hold true for this one.
