NOT BASIC, EXTRA BASIC
If you’re booking an Airbnb to save money by cooking breakfast or dinner, be aware she has an extractor in the kitchen (quoting “for ventilation purposes”), but no stove. Only microwave, one knife, two forks, two plates and a coffee machine.
If you’re willing to have a good rest after long walks in the city of New York, be aware the windows are nonexistent (like paper), you’ll hear every noise (music, cars, chatting) even with earplugs on.
The place is not basic, it’s extra basic. Bed sheets didn’t fit, blankets were dirty, also windows. No amenities, no gel, no soap, only wc paper. Space is very limited since beds are way too big for the rooms. No tv, no sofa, two chairs, no energy invested in the place.
During our stay, Blanca was nice enough to bring us an iron and some hungers. But before our stay, our flights from Europe were canceled six months in advance, and she would not reimburse us the whole price (keeping 50% 700€) even though we informed her with enough time to get the apartment rebooked, having to book new flights.
