Having stayed at a good number of different Airbnb rentals over the past several years visiting our daughter twice yearly on New York’s Westside, we would judge Gil’s place as one the best in terms of cleanliness, comfort and convenience. The one floor walk-up is located but a block from Central Park and an easy walk to the Delacorte Theater (Shakespeare in the Park), the American Museum of Natural History, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Lincoln Center (New York City Ballet), etc., not to mention great local dinning (Vin Sur Vingt – French wine and cuisine; Noi Due Café – Kosher Italian; Jacob’s Pickles – Southern + beer; Sushi Nonaka – Omasake; etc., ec.) and lots of high end shopping. As advertised, the apartment is spacious (for Manhattan), bright and a sanctuary of peace nestled in the bosom of an energized city. Everything is convenient, the kitchen well appointed and perfect for preparation of a home cooked meal. Everything had been thought of to make our stay pleasant and as comfortable as being at home. But the best point was the hospitality of our host, Gil; he patiently talked us through operation of the extensive entertainment system and even sent his manager on a Sunday evening (Rudy, who was both charming and efficient) to fix a blown light switch and otherwise promptly attended to our every need at the mere placement of a telephone call – he made our stay so pleasant that we have already reserved the place for our next planned visit to the Big Apple in November. In a word: OUTSTANDING!!
