The "garden" house isn't nearly what they make it out to be. There's many plants, yes, but it's more of an overgrown mess than anything I'd call a garden. Plants are unkept and untrimmed making it difficult to reach your entrance.

That isn't the half though. The apartment itself is nice, but BEWARE or the host and those living at the residence. It's advertised as a quiet oasis like space in the city, and it's far from that. They party at the house until all hours of the night (sometimes 3 or 4AM) and do random things in the middle of the night that keeps you up (like vacuuming at 2AM). Again, not the worst of it though.

The real trouble started when one of the OWNERS OF THE HOUSE got high on drugs and tried to break into our apartment in the middle of the night. He ended up passing out at the bottom of the stairs to our doorway. We went to leave one morning and there's the host, high on drugs, passed out in our stairway with his head leaning against our door. My wife screamed when I opened the door because she thought he was dead. After a bit of trying to wake him with no luck we decided to call the ambulance but soon after we called he awoke and looked like he was tweaking and out of it. He apologized and went up the stairs towards the front of the house, paused at the top of the stairs and then ran back down the stairs into OUR APARTMENT WE RENTED, and dove onto the bed shirtless. I was following him a little confused what the hell was going on and told him he needed to get the hell out because we rented the place. He paused again, apologized, and got up and left. We spent the last few days of our "vacation" scared to go to the house because we literally had no idea what the hell had happened. We contacted Airbnb, but and the story they got from the host was that he took drugs and there was a "reaction". For the remainder of our stay I wouldn't allow my wife and children to be there without me, so it very much became a place we just left our stuff and we felt extremely uncomfortable being there and sleeping there especially. This was our first trip to NYC with our 3 month old twins and the hosts made us feel afraid to be in our own place. They begged us not to leave a negative review and offered a full refund to us (tried to bribe us), only to change their minds about the refund. I would not recommend this place to anyone, especially someone with a family. They party until all hours of the night, the garden is overgrown and they might try to break into your apartment like they did with us. BEWARE! I have emails to confirm what happened.
