As a Superhost in New York City, I was looking forward to our stay. But the apartment was a clean, Ikea-furnished, corporate investment place that would have been expensive at half the price (we paid 1700 US for 4 days). The "hosts" were friendly but check in and check out were not very flexible- not a problem for us, but a 4 pm check in and 11 am check out seems like a hotel. Was surprised to find that there was not even a bottle of wine as a welcome, just one liter of water in the fridge. The plastic pepper grinder was broken, there were no paper towels or napkins, the towel supply a bit skimpy. A very serious problem was the huge window of light from the elevator area that permeates the first (tiny) bedroom, making it impossible to sleep if you are light sensitive. The decor was bland and pleasing enough, but hardly merits the "Plus" category with an array of plastic plants as decoration. There was one small bathroom and a half bath, also hardly luxurious. There were some slick magazines and a guidebook, but no games or books for the likely family groups, like ours, not even a deck of cards. Part of a bottle of olive oil and salt and pepper, no herbs or other useful condiment (I say this as a guest but also a Superhost, a family group is likely to do at least some cooking and would appreciate a few basics being left).
To be fair, the sheets were soft and clean, it was mostly a functional place (the sun room is nice, the washing machine great) except for the bedroom that floods light with no shade or means to block it!). My main problem was not that it wasn't perfect, it was fairly good for us in location and very clean, but that it was amazingly overpriced for an ordinary place with canned charm. Would not recommend- no spirit of personal welcome nor generosity or personality that Airbnb used to value.
