the place was clean. the host was friendly & responsive. the location was great! everything was very close to the unit and we were able to walk to the subway stations, local coffee shops, etc. my only gripes with the situation were some slight plumbing issues (which i was assured i would not be held responsible and apologized to extensively for having to deal with, which i really appreciated), as well as the fact that i was still asked to do cleaning tasks upon leaving, even though i was charged a hefty cleaning fee upon booking. these chores were not disclosed to me prior to booking and were sent to me via email the day before we planned to checkout
