Staying at Bob's lovely place (for about 50 days) felt like home. Has everything you need for a nice comfortable stay. It doesnt however have a washing machine. The laundromat is at walking distance and is rather new and clean. 2 bedrooms, one with a single bed and the other with a double bed. 2 bathrooms. In one, the water heating doesnt function. The living room has a huge comfortable sofa. There is also a nice little backyard. The area, Washington Heights is nothing too fancy, but is quite safe with a wide variety of shops and restaurants. Antika and Famous Famiglia pizza were my two most favorite eating places in the area! The 168st subway station is at walking distance. (A, C and 1 trains)

Unfortunately Bob wasn't around, so I couldnt meet him in person. He was very responsive to any queries I had via Airbnb messaging. He was kind enough to let me stay for a few hours more beyond the check out time. This was my first experience with Airbnb and it couldn't have been better.
