Pros:
Unit was clean and the host is extremely responsive in resolving issues which great. The place is in a solid location with relatively easy access to subways. The living room is a good size with room to relax.
Cons:
Unfortunately there were several issues with the bathroom in disrepair when I moved in and the laundry room was only partially functional. They were fixed pretty quickly but I didn't expect to deal with those types of issues in an Airbnb. Other drawback is that the unit is pretty loud - sounds easily travel up from the building entrance with the apartment door doing little to insulate. The apartment also gets pretty stuffy.
