Mike is a great host with a super spacious and homey apartment. The location is just awesome and the accommodations are well set up: perfect for us with two small children, room to move inside and parks (including great playgrounds) and shops steps away outside. We had a few maintenance issues but Mike was quick at working on them and will surely find solutions before he rents out again. If you are expecting something pristine and show-roomy, take a pass, but if you want to pretend to be a local and to have lived in the upper west side your whole life, this is it!
