The place was fine and I don't think we could have stayed on Staten Island for anywhere near that price any other way. Gigi was very kind and communicative during our stay. There were no towels when we arrived and I messaged Gigi about this and she promised to get them as soon as she was able. For the next several hours I would message her periodically and receive a response along the lines of "just a few more minutes". It turned out Gigi's dryer broke down and they ended up going out to buy us new towels, which I thought was very nice of them. A couple things to bear in mind if you're looking to stay here: 1) if you're a light sleeper, this might not be the ideal location for you. I slept fine, but my wife was up pretty late because every time someone takes a step upstairs you can hear them. 2) There are ants. Not a complete infestation and they're not everywhere, but we did find them in a few different locations. I'm pretty confident that Gigi has sprayed for them because in several instances, I saw a live ant carrying a dead one. 3) The listing mentioned that the location was freshly renovated. I'm not sure that's the case anymore. For example, there was lots of water damage on the ceiling of the shower with peeling paint, several of the outlets were hanging loose in the wall, and at least one of the outlets didn't work at all. Overall, Gigi's place is not the Ritz, but it's nowhere near the worst Airbnb I've stayed at. Moreover, given how she responded to the towel situation, I would not be at all surprised if she fixed all of these things for your stay. If you're on a budget and a few of the things I mentioned aren't deal breakers for you, no reason not to stay here.
