$700 / 184ft² - Kingdom of finite space (52nd street and 4th ave)

The room we're offering is on the first floor and it is 183.99 square feet of mind blowing shelter and hope/dream containment. It has two windows facing north and looking out to 52nd street. I've included a quick and dirty floor plan so you may grok all that is this room. Sorry for the weird picture artifacts, we promise the room does not suffer from temporal prismatic warps.

This is my home. It's fully furnished & decorated, no additions. Camp site logic - leave no trace. Don't leave personal items in it or take items to your personal space. I don't want to go looking for cups & utensils in your room. Kill it you fill it. Not yours, don't eat it.

No dishes in the sink - EVER: We have a dishwasher. If it is clean, empty it. If it is not, put your dish in it.

Quiet Weeknights: No overnight guests on weekdays. If you are the kind to cook midnight mac n cheese while stumbling in after a night on the town in the middle of the week, it's not going to work.

Hey hey, are you a free-wheeling, happy-go-lucky, creative class, 20-something person who loves the show New Girl, playing frisbee in the park, and being within a 1-block radius from at least 2 Citibike stations? (...) Did we mention how much we're all obsessed with the show New Girl (actually only one is...)? We even have a douchebag jar for those who leave dishes in the sink.
(...) We're really looking for a cool, sociable person who fits all of our unique personality niches
