This was my first AirBnb experience and the host really made it a pleasant experience. His instructions in the ad as well as posted in the room are clear and concise. I never met the host, but has great communications. He allowed us to check in earlier than posted. The bedroom is pretty large and has everything you need inside it. I did have to share the bathroom with another bedroom that was also being rented out, but was not a big hassle at all.
I spent majority of my trip in Manhattan. I would uber from this house to the Hoboken PATH station each time which was about a 10 min away.
