Unfortunately, the room was very much different compared to the listing. The room is in a hotel, but it did not have a view to Manhatten - only rooms purchased directly through the hotel could get those. The most disappointing thing was that we were told to get a free "upgrade" to a room with a balcony which basically was just the other building that did not have the proposed view. And every of these had a balcony, so this was just a bad excuse to sell us on the room. In summary, this was the first big disappointment on Airbnb during my 7+ years with it and would not recommend it to others at this point.
