Casey is the perfect, best (absentee) host/ airbnb hero ever and his apt is fantastic!! After one host flaked at the last minute, Casey came to our rescue. Then when my friends flight was cancelled due to snow, he very sweetly accommodated another last second stay for us. Most importantly he is a great communicator, getting back to us quickly anytime I contacted him. The apt is a clean cute perfect little space and the bed is very comfortable. I love how wonderfully he has utilized the space graced with great midcentury furniture. And he has a tv- if youre visiting nyc you may not care, if you live in nyc, it was fun for me to veg out to TCM. The neighborhood is very safe, the subway is close, and there is an amazing coffee shop and bar one block away- important as there is not a coffee maker if you need your fix in the morning. There is a bodega on the corner but walk the one block to go to the other if you're looking for a sandwich. The neighborhood is very quiet, we wanted to be away from crazy, but the subway is close and your only a short walk to getting to the more restaurant/bar/shop congested neighborhoods. The apt has everything you'll need for a comfortable short stay! Only hard thing, my friend and I are both short and the mirrors are a bit high- he must be tall! But there is a mirror attached to the dresser in the bedroom if you are short like me. Overall, I feel we really lucked out staying here. It was exactly what we needed: a relaxing comfortable clean space to crash in while mostly galavanting around Brooklyn and Manhattan.
