SAFETY WARNING—AVOID AVOID AVOID!! If you read many of his other reviews (at least 8 of them) those who stay more then one day he always causes them problems. Rude, impolite, selfish are all very accurate ways to describe him as mentioned by other guests. NOT WORTH ANY SAVINGS TO STAY WITH HIM AS HE DOES NOT CARE ABOUT OTHERS and is a LIAR! UNSAFE!!
He is DISHONEST. He mentions his mom is VISITING him. Yet, reviews over the past 4 years tell otherwise. His MOM actually LIVES with him secretly in the LIVING room, and she doesn’t speak English. Imagine the confusion when she stays home all day and tries to talk with you every time you go to the kitchen or leave the house. She will use the bathroom and kitchen all day and you will
NOT have access to the amenities that you paid for.
He ALSO rents out his room WITHOUT his landlords permission, hence he tries to have you go to the side of the apartment, late at night which is very unsafe. He will also LAUGH at you if you struggle finding his hidden secret entrance for Airbnb guests late at night! HORRIBLE RUDE PERSON! DISHONEST.
2. I had a friend come over to grab something and said she would be gone within a few minutes. We were SUPER quiet and the only way he would have known is if he stayed in his room, watching his crazy security cameras. Without seconds, HE FREAKED out and THREATENED to call the POLICE saying I “broke his rules”! . After checking his “RULES” again he has more rules than most FATHERS do for their 8 year old DAUGHTER. HE THREATENED TO ALSO PUSH ME OUT OF THE HOUSE if I did NOT leave!! AGGRESSIVE AND HOSTILE!! He stood in my room for nearly 2 HOURS after she left trying to reach Airbnb at 830pm. Eventually I felt uncomfortable and left around 10pm. I reported to Airbnb and he should be off this website due to multiple unnecessary threats. Again, AVOID him, he is NOT a people person or good with people at all.
THANKFULLY, last minute alternative hotels were cheap due to COVID-19 and I left that night. I was promised by Airbnb support already a refund of the last 2 nights + his strange cleaning fee thankfully. THIS GUY IS STRANGE AND ENJOYS TRYING TO MAKING OTHETS LIVES MISERABLE. He should NOT be allowed to host and 4.2 reviews for a host are VERY LOW compared to competitors. HE ENJOYS FEELING POWERFUL AND ABUSING HIS RIGHTS AS A HOST. VERY STRANGE GUY. Honestly believe he gets jealous of others easily and lacks confidence in himself. He clearly lives a very stressful NYC life trying to make ends meet.
3. OLD OLD HOUSE, cold shower, HARD bed, SLOW wifi.
DO NOT STAY WITH HIM- BOOK ANYWHERE ELSE. I AM GLAD I HELPED SAVE YOU TIME AND MONEY AND STRESS. It’s UNSAFE and he does NOT care about YOU or anyone else besides MONEY!
